Playing Chess
by Robert James Hanrahan
I started playing chess because my father was really into it. I remember him playing with his friends and writing all the games down on paper and analyzing the games later on. I started when I was about 8 or 9, and so I started reading some books and the best one was one from nimzowitsch "My Sytem": a really nice and crazy book, like the author Aron. I read also books by Capablanca, Alekine and many others.

A comprehensive history of the highly popular match of wits, the game of chess.
The most common theory regarding the origins of chess is that it derives from a game played in India around 600 AD called Chaturanga. An alternative theory suggests that the earliest version of the game was Xiangqi, a game played in China from the second century BC. Whatever the true origin, the game made its way into Persia, where it was named Chatrang. The Persian word “shah”, meaning king, is thought to be the origin of the English name “Chess” and the phrase “shah mat”, the king is dead, the origin for the word checkmate. |
