This is a fictionalized account of the life and career of world chess champion Alexander Alekhine. Born into Russian nobility, Alekhine lost his family and nearly his life to the Bolsheviks before becoming the world's most powerful chess player. The coming of World War II placed the grandmaster in a difficult position, forcing him to collaborate with the Nazis and to produce anti-Semitic materials. Desperate to win back his credibility after the war, Alekhine was preparing for a redemptive title match at the time of his sudden death. Alekhine's life was marked by alcoholism, fits of depression, scandalous affairs, marriages of convenience, painful compromises, and his battle to become "the Greatest." The novel is told as fiction but is based on the actual people and events that were part of his triumphant career and troubled life.

The Genius of Alekhine In chess literature, there have only been a very few chess books that have immediately - and permanently - established themselves as classics. Lasker's Manual of Chess by Emanuel Lasker, Masters of the Chessboard by Richard Réti and Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual by Mark Dvoretsky are three that come to mind. There are of course others, among them My Best Games of Chess, 1908-1937 by the fourth world chess champion, Alexander Alekhine. The original English edition, published three-quarters of a century ago, used English descriptive notation, contained one photograph, no crosstables and was released in two separate volumes. This new 21st-century edition, presented with modern algebraic notation, has combined both books into a single volume, added more than three dozen archival photographs, crosstables, Alekhine's complete match and tournament records, a foreword by Russian grandmaster Igor Zaitsev, as well as many more diagrams. A comprehensive computer-assisted analytical supplement has also been prepared and is available for download at no extra charge, so that, if you wish, you may compare Alekhine's impressive notes with the preferences of the silicon monster. Whether you feel as if you are revisiting an old friend, or being introduced to this splendid game collection for the first time, you will marvel at how Alekhine's games and works remain in many respects extraordinarily consonant with the modern approach. And you will not fail to be impressed by the genuine genius that is Alekhine.

This book completes the trilogy starting with "My Best Games of Chess 1908-1923" by Alexander Alekhine ISBN 0923891498 and followed by "My Best Games of Chess 1924-1937" by Alexander Alekhine ISBN 4871878260. This is a reprint of the original third book, with all of the games converted into Algebraic Figurine PGN Notation with diagrams in the back. Alekhine died in 1946, so this third volume was edited by International Master and British Chess Champion Conel Hugh O'Donel Alexander, based in part on the notes left by Alekhine to some of the games. Alexander Alexandrovich Alekhine (1892-1946) was not only one of the strongest and most original chess players who ever lived, but he was also the most controversial, second only to Bobby Fischer. Everything about his life and death was controversial and is still being written about even today, although he died in 1946, which is 64 years ago.

THE WORLD CHESS CHAMPION SERIES The fourth title in the popular World Chess Champion Series is about the enigmatic Alexander Alekhine. Tracing the Russian-born champion from his youth in Russia, through his assault on the chess Olympus and beyond, this books paints a fresh portrait of the player who was one of the most spectacular tacticians ever to play the game. The authors do not shy from confronting some of the less savory aspects of Alekhine’s life. They stick to the facts and present the issues surrounding the fourth world champion. “This book clears up some of the mysteries of Alekhine and provides some wonderful details...There are so many intriguing aspects to Alekhine’s life that it’s easy to forget how much he dominated the chess world...The Linders capture quite well the drama of Alekhine’s world championship matches with José Capablanca and Max Euwe. Even the blowouts against Efim Bogoljubow are well-described. Alekhine was the most peripatetic of champions, and this book details many of his travels and simul tours.” – Andy Soltis in his Foreword.

This book presents the best games from the period between 1924 and 1937 of the fourth world champion, Alexander Alekhine, selected and analyzed by himself. The games form a collection of extraordinary richness, demonstrating the refinement, originality, and depth of Alekhine's analysis. We can observe in detail his clear and aggressive style in the best moments of his career, including the anthological match against Capablanca in Buenos Aires in 1927, when he won the world title. "Typical of Alekhine were his deep plans, distant calculations, and unlimited imagination. His greatest weapon was his combinatorial vision, calculating variants with great ease and precision. Alekhine's combinations possessed an astonishing and demolishing force." - Mikhail Botvinnik

Alexander Alekhine was a two-time World Chess Champion and is widely regarded to be one of the greatest chess players of all time. During his best years he dominated tournaments, and in 1927 he defeated his great rival José Raúl Capablanca to win the world title. Alekhine was renowned both for his fierce competitive nature and his dazzling combinative play. He had a phenomenal ability to unleash combinations even from seemingly harmless positions, and he is undeniably one of the best attackers the game has ever seen. In this book, FIDE Master Steve Giddins invites you to join him in a study of his favourite Alekhine games, and shows us how we can all learn and improve our chess by examining Alekhine’s masterpieces. Move by Move provides an ideal platform to study chess. By continually challenging the reader to answer probing questions throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly encourages the learning and practising of vital skills just as much as the traditional assimilation of knowledge. Carefully selected questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn.

The return match Alekhine -- Euwe was the most significant event in 1937. Both outstanding players were in excellent shape, except for the unsuccessful game of Euwe at the finish. Their games are a good material to study and, first of all, can bring invaluable benefits to all young chess players. The match-return of Alekhine -- Euwe is much more interesting than their first match in 1935. If in the first match, Alekhine played several games, roughly speaking "adventurous", then in this match he was playing in an actual style. The same style in which he played in the 1927 match with Capablanca. However, even in this match, he sometimes unreasonably complicated the position (for example, the fourteenth game); it seems to me that this is due to different reasons -- no matter how strong a chess player is, he can incorrectly assess the position. When at the end of 1937 I commented on two games of rematch for the magazine "Chess in the USSR", I noticed that my comments differ from those previously published. Moreover, this is quite understandable: comments can be unmistakable if the chess player does not write them in a hurry. I concluded that it would be extremely useful to re-analyze all the games of the match, despite the fact that they are well known to the Soviet reader. I set myself the task of analyzing the games as deeply as possible, so that the picture of the struggle was the most complete. The readers with interest would re-examine the games. It is not for me to judge how well this task has been accomplished. In advance, I must warn the reader that in some simple games I was not able to contribute anything substantial. However, in those games where the struggle was complicated -- here, it seems, I fulfilled my intentions satisfactorily.
