In this book, German-English Grandmaster Mieses has selected 125 interesting positions from games played by various masters such as Alekhine, Capablanca, Euwe, Lasker, Marshall, Nimzowitsch, Pillsbury, Rubinstein, Steinitz, Tarrasch, Mieses himself and many more from the classic period of chess up to the mid-1930.
The material is split into three sections: The Opening, The Middlegame, and The Endgame.
All of the examples and the analysis have been re-examined by Carsten Hansen, often adding a fascinating new perspective to these classic games.
