1930C3036<p>xii255 pages with frontispiece tables and diagrams. Octavo 8 1/2" x 6 1/4" bound in original publisher's blue cloth with brown lettering to spine. Signed on the frontispiece. Bibliotheca Van der Linde-Niemeijeriana: 1516 Second edition. First published in 1929.</p><p>Fully annotated games played by the author illustrating the theories discussed in My System and arranged under the headings: Centralization<br />Restriction & blockade Over-protection The isolated queen's pawn Alternating maneuvers against enemy weaknesses Excursions through old and new territory of hypermodern chess. </p><p>Aron Nimzowitsch was a Latvian-born Danish chess player and writer. In the late 1920s Nimzowitsch was one of the best chess players in the world. He was the foremost figure amongst the hypermoderns and wrote a very influential book on chess theory: <em>My System </em>1925–1927. Nimzowitsch's seminal work <em>Chess Praxis</em> originally published in German in 1929. </p><p>The height of Nimzowitsch's career was the late 1920s and early 1930s. Chessmetrics places him as the third best player in the world from 1927 to 1931 behind Alexander Alekhine and José Capablanca. His most notable successes were first-place finishes at Copenhagen 1923 Marienbad 1925 Dresden 1926 Hanover 1926 the Carlsbad 1929 chess tournament and second place behind Alekhine at the San Remo 1930 chess tournament. Nimzowitsch never developed a knack for match play though; his best match success was a draw with Alekhine but the match consisted of only two games and took place in 1914 thirteen years before Alekhine became world champion.</p><p>Nimzowitsch is considered one of the most important players and writers in chess history. His works influenced numerous other players including Savielly Tartakower Milan Vidmar Richard Réti Akiba Rubinstein Mikhail Botvinnik Bent Larsen Viktor Korchnoi and Tigran Petrosian and his influence is still felt today. He wrote three books on chess strategy: <em>Mein System My System</em> 1925; <em>Die Praxis meines Systems The Practice of My System</em> 1929 commonly known as <em>Chess Praxis; and Die Blockade The Blockade</em> 1925 although much in this book is generally held to be a rehash of material already presented in <em>Mein System</em>. <em>Mein System</em> is considered to be one of the most influential chess books of all time. It sets out Nimzowitsch's most important ideas while his second most influential work <em>Chess Praxis</em> elaborates upon these ideas adds a few new ones and has immense value as a stimulating collection of Nimzowitsch's own games accompanied by his idiosyncratic hyperbolic commentary which is often as entertaining as instructive.</p><p><strong>Condition:</strong> Signed by the author on the frontispiece.

1929C3198<p>4222 ad pages with frontispiece 8 plates diagrams tables and index. Royal octavo 9 1/2" x 6 3/4" bound in original publisher's green cloth with white lettering to spine and cover. Annotations by A Nimzowtisch R Spielmann A Becker S G Tartakower A Brinckmann and round by round analysis and introduction by H Kmoch. Signed by Aron Nimzovitch. Bibliotheca van der Linde-Niemeijeriana: 5431 First edition.</p><p>The fourth international master chess tournament to be held in the spa resort of Karlsbad Czechoslovakia in 1929 was a round robin event involving 22 of the best chess masters in the world. Of the top players only world champion Alexander Alekhine and former world champion Emanuel Lasker were missing. The line up of players included such names as Jose Capablanca Efim Bogoljubov Frank Marshall Akiba Rubinstein Milan Vidmar Aron Nimzowitsch and Rudolf Spielmann. Among the remaining invitations one notable participant was Vera Menchik the women's world champion who joined despite the protests of some male colleagues including fellow participant Albert Becker. The tournament was held in the Kurhaus Imperial Hotel from July 30 to August 28. The time control used was 30 moves in two hours followed by 15 moves in one hour.</p><p>With 3 rounds to go Capablanca 13 and Spielmann 13 led Nimzowitsch 12 1/2 and Rubinstein 11 1/2. Rubenstein beat Menchik Capablanca only drew with Vidmar while Nimzowitsch won a crucial game from Spielmann. Thus with 2 rounds to go it was Capablanca 13 1/2 Nimzowitsch 13 1/2. Spielmann had led through most of the tournament and could not bear to see the first prize slip away at the end. He concentrated all his remaining energy and beat Capablanca. Nimzowitsch only drew with Maroczy and Rubinstein drew with Becker. With 1 round to go it was Spielmann 14 Nimzowitsch 14 Capablanca 13 1/2 and Rubinstein 13. Spielmann now had the best chance because he faced Mattison while Nimzowitscvh had to play the more dangerous Tatakower Rubinstein drew with Euwe. Capablanca crushed Marcozy while both Spielmann and Nimzowitsch obtained winning positions. Tratakower began to fight hard and was unclear whether he could hold the draw. Spielmann was quite nervous and started exchanging pieces prematurely instead of simply winning a pawn. Spielmann only drew falling back into a tie with Capablanca. Nimzowitsch struggled on and finally won his game and the tournament. The time limit was 30 moves in two hours and then 15 moves per hour.
