266 annotated games, 361 diagrams, appendix, tables, bibliography, indexes. From the cover: Emil Kemeny appeared on the American chess scene in 1890, a Hungarian chess player on the Lower East Side who had difficulty with English. Within a decade he was considered one of the country’s finest chess players and writers. He dominated chess in both Philadelphia and Chicago, where he lived between 1893 and early 1906. His chess career as player and writer is presented in detail. Common databases rarely include more than 35 of his games; this book has 227 — most with annotations. Forty additional period games, hundreds of source notes, tournament and match records, crosstables, a bibliography, and openings, player, and general indexes complete the work.
