Description
Alexander Alekhine was a two-time World Chess Champion and widely regarded as one of the greatest chess players of all time. His fierce competitive nature and dazzling combinative play made him a formidable opponent, capable of unleashing combinations even from seemingly harmless positions. This book presents 100 selected games by Alekhine, carefully chosen to illustrate his masterful attacking style. By studying these games move by move, readers can gain insight into Alekhine's thought process and develop their own chess skills. The Move by Move format encourages active learning and practice, helping to monitor progress and improve overall knowledge of the game. Through this study of Alekhine's favourite games, FIDE Master Steve Giddins aims to help readers learn and improve their chess, no matter their level of experience.
