This title is contemporarily sold out. Again expected in September 2024. The world chess organization FIDE was founded in Paris in 1924. The Golden Book of FIDE provides the most comprehensive account of the first 100 years of FIDE. The book starts with the first steps to form an international chess federation in 1914 and covers the entire period of chess history up to the end of 2023. The book brings details of events, organizers, players, arbiters, and key dates in the modern history of chess. The author Willy Iclicki is chairman of the FIDE Historical Committee. He has written several publications on FIDE and is probably the greatest expert on its history. 3 pictures.
