reprint. When in 1922, after many years of negotiations, which repeatedly called into question the very possibility of a world championship, two brilliant chess thinkers sat against each other to start a struggle unprecedented in the history of chess art, the whole world held its breath, preparing to witness an unprecedented tension of chess thought and will, exceptional in its deep penetration into the truth of creativity. Lasker and Capablanca were opponents not only of challenging each other's right to be called the first world chess player. Their struggle is a clash of two chess understandings, two improvements in the field of these understandings, and therefore followers and admirers of both one and another course.

Alexander Alekhine won many competitions of the highest rank, and yet his two victories stand apart. The tournaments in San Remo (1930) and Bled (1931) brought together almost all the strongest grandmasters of that time, and the 4th world champion seemed to appear “out of competition”. His separation from the closest pursuers was 3.5 and 5.5 points, respectively! “He is cracking down on us, like with the yellow-and-yellow chicks,” Nimtsovich sighed, stopping the clock after another defeat from Alekhine.

The author set himself a difficult goal: to create a kind of meditator's guide based on the material of the international tournament of grandmasters. Grandmaster Bronstein is famous for the depth of the game, an original understanding of the laws of chess. This is manifested in the games of the grandmaster that bypassed the world press and fully refers to his comments. Numerous positive, and sometimes laudatory reviews of the first literary work of D. Bronstein, the benefits brought by the book according to readers' reviews, indicated that the author successfully coped with the task. The second edition is slightly reduced compared to the first due to the elimination of obsolete material. The introductory article was supplemented, and the errors noted in the first edition were eliminated.

This book tells about matches full of unusual adventures, tragedies, amazing victories and unfulfilled hopes, dramas at the blackboard and real miracles, stubborn confrontation and manifestations of character. Many parties - from Steinitz to Anand.
