  • Tenth king of chess
    Tenth king of chess
    Author:
    Bezgodov

    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

  • My great predecessors T.1, From Steinitz to Alekhine Kasparov
    book

    Как можно соединить в одной книге стремительность и дотошность, увлекательность для гроссмейстера и занимательность для любителя или даже профана; лиричность и объективность? Можно, вообще-то, и по-разному. Но в данном случае это следствие самой личности автора. Гарри Каспаров, тринадцатый чемпион мира по шахматам. Человек кипящий и порывистый, жесткий и целеустремленный, увлекающийся и политический человек. В сотрудничестве с Дмитрием Плисецким он воспроизводит историю шахматного чемпионства - в этом, первом томе – от Стейница до Алехина. Уже в каком-то "наполеоновском" предисловии Каспаров сразу высвечивает несколько важнейших моментов: всего 14 человек за 117 лет были сильнейшими за доской. Это раз И два: все чемпионы, да и их предшественники – дофидешные великие шахматисты были теснейше связаны с ценностями того общества, в котором жили и творили… Так Каспаров распахивает дверь книги и сразу, уже на пороге ясные, рациональные характеристики всех четырнадцати чемпионов. Включая себя, что важно, и без кокетливой скромности Каспаров пишет "Я" и трезво ставит себя в контекст эпохи и игры. Скажу шепотом: "мы, со многими из вас играем в шахматы на уровне детского сада. И буквы, цифры и позиции для нас китайская грамота. Но почитаем комментарии Каспаров к партиям, которые настолько широким радиусом освещают мир вокруг доски, не отвлекаясь ни на секунду от сути происходящего, что мы невольно втягиваемся во вселенную черно-белых фигур и черно-белых клеток". Но и комментирует Каспаров не только сам. О каждом чемпионе – будто интервью дают – говорят в книге все другие, что физически могли знать о нем. Итак, Гарри Каспаров Мои великие предшественники, т.1, "От Стейница до Алехина". Рипол Классик, Москва 2003. А томов будет еще два.
