Bernard Cafferty & Mark Taimanov: The Soviet Championships.
Starting in 1920 and running through to the early 1990s, when the political break-up of the USSR meant the end of the competition, the prestigious Soviet Championships were truly representative events with all of the top Soviet players participating.
This book is a permanent record of those extraordinary times. it encompasses every single Championship, giving a report and the full crosstable of results, as well as a carefully chosen selection of the finest and most memorable games.
The introductions to each Championship are equally fascinating, as the majority of these tournaments were played against the oppressive political backdrop of communism. Revered chess masters could get away with more than most, but veiled threats by the authorities were always there for those who might consider stepping out of line.
Figurine notation. 58 championships 1920-1991. 222 pages with crosstables, photos and many diagrams. 18 x 26 cm.
Cadogan Chess, London & New York, 1998. Publishers original hardback with a dust jacket. Condition VG.
