Romanovsky, reveal the “internal meaning of the processes of struggle”. The book includes the author’s games with Alekhine, Botvinnik, Kotov, Levenfish, Bondarevsky, Averbakh and many other major masters. The class of the game in these games is not always the same, but at an invariably high level are deep and informative notes. The autobiography of P. A. Romanovsky is instructive and interesting. It contains curious sketches of pre-revolutionary chess life, a description of the first steps in the development of Soviet chess culture.
