Chess Strategy
A classic by Edward Lasker (1885-1981) who was a leading American chess and go player. Lasker earned degrees in mechanical and electrical engineering. He was New York City Champion in 1915, the Chicago Champion in 1916, and won five U.S. Open events (1916, 1917, 1919, 1920, and 1921). In 1923 he challenged Frank James Marshall in a match for the American championship, narrowly losing by a 5-4 score. He competed in the famous New York 1924 tournament, but finished only tenth out of eleven players. After that he authored several chess books, but did not compete in very many more serious tournaments, devoting most of his time to his engineering profession. FIDE awarded him the official IM title in 1961.
