Kurzbeschreibung
"Chess Secrets" is a series of books which uncover the mysteries of the most important aspects of chess, such as strategy, attack, defense, opening play, end games, off-board preparation and mental attitude. In each book the author chooses and deeply studies a number of great players who have excelled in such aspects of the game, greatly influenced their peers and inspired all of us. In "Heroes of Classical Chess", Craig Pritchett selects five great players whose style exemplifies classically direct, clear, energetic, tough, ambitious yet fundamentally correct chess playing attributes. Pritchett studies the major contributions they have made, compares their differing styles and discusses the critical influences they have had on the development of chess, on their peers and on all our games. Read this book and enhance your own skills. Understand how to play in a classical style and win more games.

Disappointing collection
22. Mai 2012
Format:Taschenbuch
Someone at Amazon screwed up and detached my original review from this book, so I'm reproducing it below. You can find a more thorough review of this book at ChessCafe dot com, click on Archives, then Book Reviews. They are in alpha order by title.
--------------------------------------------
Original review:
Although the games in this book are of course excellent games, they are available in many other sources, such as Smyslov's 125 games, Fischer's 60 memorable games, and so on. Furthermore, the author appears to have exerted remarkably little effort to analyze these games or give insightful annotations. Most of the games contain at least one other complete game, with no annotations (just a string of moves followed by 1-0) as a note. Many contain three to five complete games as notes. One contains seven complete games in the notes. These are un-annotated games, mind you: just filling space and teaching almost nothing. And the annotations that are present appear to be cribbed from other authors about half the time -- possibly more, if one searches in books I do not own.
The upshot is that, if you have a relatively small library of chess books and want to get a sampling of these great players, this would probably be a three-star book. You'd be better off getting a games collection from any one of these players, especially the self-annotated collections by Smyslov, Fischer, or Anand, but if you bought this book and studied it you probably wouldn't hate yourself. By contrast, if you have a fairly well-developed library already, this is a one-star book; it adds almost nothing you don't already know. Average: two stars.

Carlsen? WTF!
9. Oktober 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
WTF! you are going to put Carlsen in with these Great players! Yea he can play but he's a kid!!! where will he be in 10 years? I guess the author owed him a favor! To put him in a book with Fischer, Anand, Smyslov, and Rubinstein is so f'n Ridicules!!!
