Rudolph Spielmann was one of the most fearsome attacking players in
the history of chess. He was very much from the so-called "Romantic
School," where gambits were always accepted and checkmating the
king was the only real thought of the players. His love of the
King's Gambit and similar aggressive openings earned him the
respect of his peers early in his career and he went on to become
one of the strongest Grandmasters of his time. His philosophy on
chess could be summed up by his quote: "A good sacrifice is one
that is not necessarily sound but leaves your opponent dazed and
confused."
In this book, Neil McDonald takes a look back at how Spielmann
overcame his opponents in dazzling style, carefully choosing and
analyzing some of Spielmann's most glorious attacks and famous
combinations. A deep study of his games cannot fail to entertain
and inspire any true chess enthusiast.
