Author: Velasco, Gabriel / Kingston, Taylor
Title: The Life and Games of Carlos Torre - paperback
 
Biography and 115 deeply annotated games. The book also includes two interviews with Torre, his remembrances and other information. Indexes of players, opening, general index and bibliography at the end. The first edition was published in 2000; this is an expanded and revised edition, and the analyses are also computer-tested. Carlos Torre Repetto, 1904-1978, was on the road to becoming one of the world's best chess players. For example, in 1925, at a strong tournament in Moscow, he finished fifth and won with Emanuel Lasker in a game that is published in many textbooks of tactics. Torre's opening in Queen's Pawn attack is named after him. His career was prematurely ended due to mental illness. In 1977, FIDE awarded him the title of Grandmaster, the first Mexican to do so, for his results in the 1920s. Further information about the book and a sample are available at thinkerspublishing.com.
