Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The Sheer Enjoyment of Paul Morphy In the middle of the nineteenth century, a soft-spoken young man from New Orleans would upend the conventional chess world. Perplexing positional pressure coupled with breath-taking combinations would leave him virtually in a class by himself. In 1909, Hungarian Grandmaster Geza Maroczy - himself a world-class player in the first decade of the 20th century - penned a wonderful compendium of all-known games of the American champion. The book, in German, was an instant success. And now (finally!) it is available in English. The book contains over 400 games by Morphy, most deeply annotated by Maroczy. He uses a light hand when explaining the logical and positional concepts of the games, while not overlooking the historical background and context in which they were played. In addition, a brief section on Morphy's endgame skill has been added by GM Karsten Mueller and a look from "a modern perspective" has been provided by GM Valeri Beim. Maroczy's subtle, often poetic insights regarding Morphy's greatness provide an indispensable perspective. Why read Maroczy's magnum opus today? There are of course several good reasons, from a historical standpoint the book is a must-read. From a chess perspective, a complete collection of Morphy's games makes a very deep impression. In short, there are a host of good reasons for chess lovers to celebrate Maroczy's classic Paul Morphy, not the least of which is the sheer enjoyment of watching the incomparable maestro at play. - From the Foreword by Charles Hertan, author of The Real Paul Morphy Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…
