Opis

The growing popularity of chess in Victorian Britain was reflected in an increasingly competitive market of books and periodicals aimed at players from beginner to expert. This book combines new information about the early history of the game with advice for researchers into chess history and traces the further development of chess literature well into the 20th century.
