Jose Raul Capablanca - A Chess Biography is the most complete and thorough biography of José Raúl 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 follows his development as a young player, his rise to prominence as challenger and 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. Meticulously researched and drawing on many sources available only in Capablanca’s home country, it puts truth to legend and presents a portrait of a complex man with far-ranging interests and concerns.
Numerous games and diagrams complement the text, along with a wealth of photographs. Browse more titles in Accessories > Chess Books or explore related study material like E-Dvd Roman's Lab - Volume 11 - Greatest Games Of Chess Ever Played - Part 2.
