The Eighty-Five Games of Their Six Chess Matches, with Excerpts from Additional Games Against Other Opponents. Photos, diagrams, appendices, notes, bibliography, indexes. From the cover: The meeting of Louis Charles Mahe de la Bourdonnais and Alexander McDonnell at London’s Westminster Chess Club in 1834 was notable for a number of reasons. McDonnell and de la Bourdonnais played six matches in 1834. This book offers biographies of the two and illuminates their times — and then the 85 games are analyzed using modern theory; there are numerous diagrams and previously published commentary. Nine appendices present selected games against other opponents; provide other interesting documents; present several statistics; and provide a schematic of mistakes made by both contestants.
