The high point of his brilliant career was a triumph at the largest international tournament in London in 1883, where he took first place, beating the runner-up Wilhelm Steinitz by three(!) points. In the subsequent match for the world championship, Zukertort led with a score of 4: 1, and, according to many experts, only health problems prevented him from becoming the first official world champion in history. The book, in fact, is divided into two parts. The first one consists of the best articles and fragments, the authors of which are mainly people who knew Zukertort well, and gives a full idea of his personality. The second and main part of the book presents the most complete collection of parties to date (more than 300), commented mainly by himself, as well as by his famous rivals – Steinitz, Chigorin, etc. The enduring value of Zuckertort's work is evidenced by the fact that many of his games were later commented on by the fifth world champion Max Euwe. I. Zukertort, a student of the uncrowned world champion A. Andersen, was an adherent of romantic, combination chess. His games will undoubtedly help you improve your skills and enjoy the authentic masterpieces of chess art.ISBN: 978-5-94693-339-1Publishing house: Russian Chess HouseAuthor(s): ChigorinSeries: Great ChessLanguage: RussianFormat: EnlargedVolume: 453Binding: HardDate: 2014A gift edition.

Levenfish, etc. The biographical part of the book is based on the famous work of Grekov, but the collection of parties has been significantly expanded. Mikhail Ivanovich was far ahead of his time and actually played chess of the XXI century, and his unfading ideas had a huge impact on subsequent generations. After studying this book, you will significantly strengthen your game and significantly replenish the stock of ideas in all stages of the game. For a wide range of chess fans.
