Lasker retained the title of world champion for twenty-seven years, which is a record achievement for chess, and continued to perform at the highest level until 68 years. Chess Game Tutorial by Lasker – is a classic of chess literature. Unlike many others, it covers a wide range of chess problems. M. Botvinnik wrote: The preparation Lasker for the competition was assisted by his versatility. He had no "taste", not IML style, he did everything equally strongly, equally well – in defense and in attack, in calm positions and violent complications, in the middlegame and in the endgame. The book is multifaceted and multicast. For fans and young chess players – a textbook for more experienced – a guide to creative and athletic growth. Lasker is not so much taught to play, how to think for themselves, including to question the judgment of even the recognized authorities. The textbook contains initial information about the game, examples illustrating the features of some situations, relevant at the time of writing information on the theory of openings in explanatory examples. The Chapter on combinations contains a collection of excellent examples from all stages of the game: the debut, the middle of the game and the end. The Chapter on positional play captivates with a qualitative overview of the history of chess.  Examples are also relevant and instructive. Lasker was not even a witness, but the Creator of this stage of chess development and we can get information "live" from the source.
