5.0 out of 5 stars Synopsis, 6 Jul 2007
It is astonishing that the organisers of Nottingham 1936 succeeded in attracting such an illustrious field. This included world champions Euwe, Lasker, Capablanca, Alekhine and Botvinnik, as well as prospective challengers such as Fine, Reshevsky, and Flohr, and aspirants from the past - Bogolyubov, Vidmar and Tartakower.A sparkling field merited sparkling commentary and this was provided in full measure by the former champion Alexander Alekhine.The acerbic clash between himself and Capablanca forms one of the dramatic high points of the book.
Alexander Alekhine was a colossus of chess - twice world champion and a brilliant author, endowed with the secret gift of making the games come alive on the page.

5.0 out of 5 stars some books deserve 6 stars!, 21 Nov 2002
By A Customer
alexander alekhine was one of the immortals of chess and nottingham 1936 was one of the strongest tournaments ever held-with no less than 5 past present or future world champions in it!

alekhine writes great and dramatic notes -the games come truly alive-and a particular bonus is that the printing and diagrams are very clear indeed.

5.0 out of 5 stars britain's strongest tournament, 11 Nov 2002
By A Customer
nottingham 1936 contained no fewer than 5 past present or future champions-lasker , capablanca, alekhine, euwe and botvinnik.alekhines notes do justice to this great event and it is particularly poignant to see his own explanation of how he lost to his arch rival capablanca from a superior position.
