The name Frank James Marshall (1877-1944) is one of the most glorious chess in the history, and his book about himself, the translation of which is offered to the reader from English, one of, as they would say today, "cults" in chess literature. It is even strange that this is her first edition in Russian.
Do F. Marshall be represented? We mention only a few facts: for almost 30 years he kept the title of US champion, played matches for the title of world champion, his account of victory over the capablanca and Lasker, a counterattack in the Spanish party, which is still part of the debut repertoire of the strongest grandmasters Mira. His vivid style, personal charm, boundless devotion to chess earned him the love of fans of the game around the world.
There are many bright tournament victories in his asset, but one - in Cambridge Springs - stands apart. The brilliant composition of the participants (led by the world champion Lasker) and an early victory without defeat with a huge margin from the pursuers is one of the brightest pages of chess history.
In all sectors of human activity, there are glorious names. In chess, one of these names is Frank Marshall.
The book that the reader holds in his hands consists of two parts - in the first Marshall talks about his life in chess, and the second - the 140 best parties of F. Marshall, selected by himself.
It is safe to say that the analysis of living and witty parties (no boring in the collection!) will give the reader a true pleasure
