Each letter can be finessed by a + or - giving 12 possible levels. The judgement will be subjective, of course, but based on decades of experience. F = Fine or nearly new // VG = very good // G = showing acceptable signs of wear. P = Poor, structural damage (loose covers, torn pages, heavy marginalia etc.) but still providing much of interest. AN = Algebraic Notation in which, from White’s point of view, columns are called a – h and ranks are numbered 1-8 (as opposed to the old descriptive system). Figurine, in which piece names are replaced by pictograms, is now almost universal in modern books as it overcomes the language problem. In this case AN may be assumed. pp = number of pages in the book.// ed = edition // insc = inscription – e.g. a previous owner’s name on the front endpaper. o/w = otherwise. dw = Dust wrapper It may be assumed that any book published in Russia will be in the Russian language, (Cyrillic) or an Argentinian book will be in Spanish etc. Anything contrary to that will be mentioned. PB = paperback. SB = softback i.e. a flexible cover that cannot be torn easily.

Of all the many wonderful tournaments in chess history, few can rival the triple whammy of impor- tance, strength and excitement achieved by the 2013 FIDE Candidates tournament (15 March – 1 April). That this event took place in London, scene of the very first international chess tournament in 1851 and more recently of the London Chess Classic series, is something to warm the heart of any English chess enthusiast. Even taking into account inflation, the average rating of the eight players (2787) was impressive. Going into the event, the favourites were clearly Magnus Carlsen (at 2872, the highest rated player of all time), former world champion Vladimir Kramnik (2810) and Levon Aronian (2809).

  • 6 October 2018 the Following Are Anecdotes and Vignettes Written
    6 October 2018 The following are anecdotes and vignettes written by Moshe Czerniak in his book “Enziklopedia Tevel U’meloah: Toldot HaShachmat: Mereshito ad Yamenu” (translated as “The Global Encyclopedia: The History of Chess: From Its Origin Until Today”). The book, published in 1963, was one volume of a larger ongoing encyclopedia encompassing a vast range of topics. In this volume Czerniak includes personal stories and anecdotes, told over in the first person, which I believe are unknown to the non-Hebrew reading public. In the following table I have attempted to locate and translate all such personal, first-hand stories told by Czerniak. I have included the page, section, Hebrew original, and English translation. I have made every effort to translate the texts as faithfully as possible, to the best of my abilities. Moshe Rubin Jerusalem, Israel Email: [email protected] Page Section within Hebrew (Original) English (Translated) the Book ,The former Argentinian champion סיפר לי האלוף הארגנטיני לשעבר, גראו, עם משחקו עם טאראש הקשיש, The Steinitz and 44 Roberto] Grau, told me about his game] באולימפיית לונדון, ב1927-: "תאר לעצמך איזה כבוד היה לי, כאשר .Lasker Era: Dr with the aging Tarrasch in the 1927 טאראש, לאחר שניצח אותי, החל לרשום את מסעי המשחק בפנקסו הקטן!"
