Synopsis
Offers a thorough and analytical review of the life of Jose Raul Capablanca and his years as a child prodigy, aspirant to the crown, monarch of chess and eternal challenger. The drama and complexities of his human side contrast with the definition of 'the chess machine', as he was usually known. This is the most complete and thorough work about this figure and opens new fields of interpretation about his life and his contribution to chess., This is the most complete and thorough biography of Jose Raul Capablanca, one of the greatest players in the history of chess. Beginning with his family background, birth, childhood and introduction to the game in Cuba, it examines his life and play as a young man; follows his evolution as a player and rise to prominence, first as challenger and then world champion; his loss of the title to Alekhine and his efforts to recapture the championship in the last years of his too-short life. What emerges is a portrait of a complex man with far-ranging interests and concerns, in stark contrast to his robotic reputation as "the chess machine." Meticulously researched, utilizing many sources available only in Capablanca's home country, it puts truth to legend regarding a man who stood astride the chess world in of its most dynamic and dramatic eras. Numerous games and diagrams complement the text, as do a wealth of photographs., This is the most complete and thorough biography of Jos Ra l Capablanca, one of the greatest players in the history of chess.
