Beschreibung

In 1921, the long-reigning champion Dr. Emanuel Lasker finally accepted the conditions to play a match for the World Chess Championship against the young, Cuban Phenom José Raúl Capablanca.
The match took place in Havana and became a rather one-sided affair, with Capablanca with four games before Lasker forfeited the match after just 14 games.
The present book revisits the material and analysis put forward by Capablanca in a 1921 book on the match and includes:
- The analysis by Capablanca has been re-examined, computer-checked, and expanded.
- Additional game references from contemporary games, with an emphasis on games and variations played by Lasker and Capablanca.
- In the second part of the book, all other games between Lasker and Capablanca have been included. drawing on the analysis and annotations from the original tournament books.
- Analysis included by Capablanca, Alekhine, Tarrasch, Bohatyrchuk, Sozin, and others.
- Tournament tables from all tournaments where both Lasker and Capablanca took part, both before and after the 1921 match.
- Unique material including pictures from some of their encounters and a recounting of a conversation between Capablanca and Rokhlin ahead of Capablanca's game vs Lasker in Moscow, 1936.
FIDE Master Carsten Hansen has carefully re-examined all games and analyses for this expanded and updated edition that should thrill both fans of Capablanca, Lasker, and chess history.
