SynopsisJose Raul Capablanca is a chess legend, world champion and quite simply one of the greatest players in the history of the game. His achievements and seemingly effortless style of play won many admirers, and his legacy includes a treasure of instructive games. Studying Capablanca's play is a must for any aspiring chess player. For Cyrus Lakdawala, it was a key factor in his chess development and improvement, and in this book he revisits many of his favourite Capablanca games. Lakdawala examines Capablanca's skills in attack, defence, counter-attack, exploiting imbalances, accumulating advantages and, of course, his legendary endgame play. Move by Move provides an ideal platform to study chess. By continually challenging the reader to answer probing questions throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly encourages the learning and practising of vital skills just as much as the traditional assimilation of knowledge. Carefully selected questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn.

  • Excellent book, a must have if you are not an IM or a GM

    Excellent book and a compelling read for anyone that not have an IM or GM title. I have several books on Capablanca's games, some that I have had for decades. But this book engaged me far more than any of the other books. I am really going through the games with a degree of engagement that I never had with the games before. My compliments to Cyrus Lakdawala for his approach and presentation.
