    Publisher: Russian Chess HouseLanguage: RussianFormat: RegularPages: 560Binding: HardcoverDate: 2020Description:The legendary "Problems and etudes" is the world's first periodical devoted entirely to chess composition (1927-1930). In total, 8 collections were released, which have become a great bibliographic rarity today. In this edition, all of them are combined into one book. These are not only first-class chess compositions and wonderful articles by leading masters of the past that have not lost their relevance today. This is also a fascinating excursion into the history of the USSR in the late 20s of the XX century. Alas, the publication was destined for a short life – in 1930, one of its initiators, the famous chess composer L. B. Zalkind was arrested and convicted in the case of the Union Bureau of the Menshevik party. The time of mass terror had not yet come, and printed publications were already disappearing from the bookshelves of the socialist state. Under the General editorship of the world champion in composition Oleg Pervakov. For a wide range of fans of chess and chess composition.
