Essays in American Chess History is a collection of self-contained essays by Caissa Editions, each focused on a different facet of chess history and the game’s enduring mysteries.
The essays are grouped into four sections. Section One, Studies in Time, concentrates mostly on tournaments and club play, and includes both new and previously published pieces. It also features the extended essays on the murder of Major Wilson (Chapter 1) and the Washington Chess Divan championship of 1942 (Chapter 4), both entirely new and never before published.
These essays can be read individually or as a whole, offering glimpses into long-neglected byways of the past and tracing a progression in thinking about chess, history, and their relationship. For more chess-related reading, see Uncategorised or browse Clearance - Das Erste Jartausend Der Schachlitteratur (850-1880).
