This is an old collection of games.,
This review is from: Epic Battles of the Chessboard (Dover Chess) (Paperback)
This is an old collection of games. The first games are from the MacDonnell - La Bourdanaisse match of 1834. The last games are from 1951. The book is in old descriptive notion. Coles is the author and Reinfeld simply checked the annotations. Coles was looking for hard fought games and not necessarily the most briliantly played games which makes this an interesting collection. There is almost a minimal amount of annotations and diagrams. Chernov's Most Instructive Games of Chess is from about the same period and certainly a better buy than this.

I played through all the games in this book. Well, every game is indeed a battle. But a lot of them are not in a high level from a viewpoint of strategy. Don't expect to learn much useful from this book, it's only for entertaining.
