Z obálky: This definitive work on the Englishman Amos Burn assembles and analyzes all extant games and provides a thorough biography of the famous chess master of the 19th and early 20th centuries. It chronicles in exceptional detail the broader picture of chess development throughout that era. Burn’s life is painstakingly traced from his birth in 1848 to his death of a stroke at age 76. Where necessary, old analysis is corrected and supplemented. Meticulous research has been undertaken in newspapers and periodicals from numerous countries, and many forgotten games have been unearthed. There are three appendices, notes, bibliography, and indices of openings, annotators, games, players, and general subjects. Více informací najdete na mcfarlandbooks.com
