Klappentext

Louis Charles Mahe de la Bourdonnais and Alexander MacDonnell played six chess matches in 1834. This book provides biographies of the combatants, illuminating their place in the game's history. The historic venue is also examined. The 85 games are given modern analysis, along with numerous diagrams and some of the previously published commentary. The merits of the openings, middle- and endgame maneuvers of the two are weighed. Nine appendices present selected games against other opponents; excerpt a contemporary account of the games' ambience; provide other interesting documents; present statistics; and provide a schematic of mistakes made by both contestants. Bibliography, notes, indexes.
