Masterpieces And Dramas Of The Soviet Championships: Volume III (1948-1953) is the third volume of Sergey Voronkov’s historical study of late Stalinist-era Soviet chess.
It covers the five Soviet championships from 1948 to 1952 and the playoff match between Botvinnik and Taimanov in 1953, which concludes one month before Stalin’s death. The volume includes 77 games and fragments, mostly annotated by the participants and other contemporary masters, with modern computer analysis added.
The book is illustrated with over 220 photos and cartoons from the period, including material from unique archives such as David Bronstein’s, and many images are published for the first time. It also follows the rise of players such as Petrosian, Geller, Korchnoi, Taimanov, Averbakh, Simagin, Kholmov, and Furman, while also telling the stories of Yuri Sakharov and Johannes Weltmander.
