    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others.

    In possession of a calico cover with an illustrated publishing cover pasted over the front cover. In a good condition. All the games of the tournament (Kiev, 1903, I place - Chigorin) with the descriptions of the tours. Introductory article with the program and the conditions of the tournament. The last tournament is the triumph of the founder of the national chess school, one of the strongest chess players of the world of his time, Mikhail Ivanovich Chigorin (1850-1908). Rarity! The idea of organizing the 3rd All-Russian Chess Tournament appeared in the Kiev Chess Society in the summer of 1901, shortly after the 2nd All-Russia tournament, which took place in Moscow (in the Moscow Chess Club) from December 26, 1900 to January 14, 1901. But only that the founded Kiev Chess Society did not immediately reach the opportunity to begin the actual organization of the tournament, and the thought of it, barely appearing, subsided. However, after a year & mdash; in the summer of 1902 & mdash; the idea of the tournament was revived again in the Kiev Society and this time with more solid chances for its implementation. Adopted sympathetically everywhere, the idea of the tournament in Kiev found warm support in the Chess Review. This work with joint forces went so successfully that by the end of 1902 it became clear that there was a full opportunity to organize a tournament. PHOTO PHOTO
