DESCRIPTION

1988 "HISTOIRE DES MAÎTRES BELGES"

MUCH SOUGHT-AFTER BOOK

By Wasnair & Jadoul

 

Wasnair, Michel & Jadoul, Michel: "HISTOIRE DES MAÎTRES BELGES".

(Bruxelles), Rossel Edition, 1988. Original softback edition. 306 pages (including Title page) + 6 unnumbered pages (including Index) + loose Errata sheet (usually missing). 21,5 x 14,6 cm. In French.

 

Very good to excellent: Some very slight wrinkles, more visible on the spine, and a small transparent cellophane "reinforcement" on the four outer corners of the covers, probably to prevent the covers from "peeling" the surface layer of plastic. Otherwise in excellent condition.

 

Profiles and select annotated games of some 30 Belgian chess masters, from the 1920s to the mid 1980s. Colle gets top billing with 30 pages whilst other notables include Koltanowski, O Kelly de Galway, Soultanbeieff and Winants. Excellent photographic report: I think I have counted 66 Photographs!! As well as about a dozen Drawings. WITHOUT A DOUBT, A BEAUTIFUL AND SPECTACULAR BOOK!!

 

About one of the Authors, Michel Jadoul:

 

Michel Jadoul (born 17 September 1957 in Brussels) is a Belgian chess player. He was named International Master in 1986.

 

He won the Belgian Individual Championship 4 times: 1984, 1988 (shared with Richard Meulders), 1990 and 1992.

 

For the Belgian national team he played in three Chess Olympiads: in 1984 on the first reserve board, in 1986 on the third board and in 1988 on the second board. He has a positive total score of 18 points from 30 games in Olympiads (+13 =10 -7). At the 1980 EEC Championship in Berlin he played for Belgium on board four. Jadoul played club chess in Belgium in the 1980s for Anderlecht, with whom he reached the semi-finals of the European Club Cup in 1986, from 2003 to 2005 for Boey Temse and in the 2010/11 season for Cercle d'Échecs Fontainois. In the Dutch Meesterklasse, he played for Rotterdam from 1999 to 2004. Jadoul prefers the Larsen opening 1. b3 as White.

 

In the book Smerdon's Scandinavian by David Smerdon (Everyman Chess, 2015) a central variation of the Scandinavian Opening (Portuguese Gambit) is named after Jadoul: 1. e2-e4, d7-d5 2. e4xd5, Sg8-f6 3. d2-d4, Lc8-g4! (The exciting and popular Jadoul variation).
