Paul Keres' Best Games (2 volumes) - 2nd hand
Egon Varnusz
Description
VOLUME 1: CLOSED GAMES
A short biography of Estonian Grandmaster Paul Keres, together with 170 games with 1 d4 and Reti/English openings. The volume is a manual of openings, the games being classified according to their openings, and opening sub-variations, as played by one of the greatest personalities in the history of chess.
VOLUME 2: OPEN & SEMI-OPEN GAMES
Dubbed 'The Crown Prince of Chess', the great Estonian Grandmaster Paul Keres was admired universally, as much for his attractively clear cut style of play as for his modest and chivalrous personality.
Three times Soviet Champion and on seven occasions a candidate for the world title, he was for over a quarter of century one of the elite of the chess world.
Egon Varnusz concludes his authoritative study of Keres' finest games with commentaries upon a further 240, all this selection opening 1 e4. All are classified according to opening variation, offering both the student and connoisseur a deeper insight into the theory and practice of open and semi-open chess.
