Download or read book Paul Morphy written by David Lawson and published by University of Louisiana at Lafayette. This book was released on 2010 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Paul Morphy: The Pride and Sorrow of Chess" is the only full-length biography of Paul Morphy, the antebellum chess prodigy who launched United States participation in international chess and is still generally acknowledged as the greatest American chess player of all time. But Morphy was more than a player. He was a shy, retiring lawyer who had been taught that such games were no way to make a living. The strain of his fame and the pull of his domineering family led Morphy to set another precedent: chess madness. Morphy's mental descent after retiring from chess became a part of his lore, made all the more magnanimous by a spate of twentieth-century examples. "The Pride and Sorrow of Chess" tells the full known story of the life of Paul Morphy, from his privileged upbrining in New Orleans to his dominance of the chess world, to the later tragedy of his demise. This new edition of David Lawson's seminal work, still the principal source for all Morphy biographical presentations, also includes new biographical material about the biographer himself, telling the story of the author, his opus, and the previously unknown life that brought him to the research.

Excerpt: ...part, in trying further conclusions. (a) A dry, dull game is the result of this exchange, and the opponent, with his two Bishops and the rather stronger centre, though he has a doubled Pawn, keeps the draw more sure in hand. (6) Kt x P seems preferable. (c) 11...R--Ksq.; 12 P--KR3, 12 Kt--K4; 13 KtxKt. 13 R x Kt kept his Q centre more compact and was likely to give him an advantage in the end. (d) Well played. It was very important for Black to prevent or delay B--B5 or P--QKt3, followed by P--B4 on the part of the adversary, and, as will be seen, he judiciously leaves his at Rsq. with the object of advancing his QRP later on. (e) If P--QR4, the answer KB--QKt5, followed by B--BG, would force the exchange of the Knight, and on account of Bishops remaining of opposite colors a draw will be easily effected. (/)An excellent move that weakens White's Pawns on the Q wing, at least for attacking purposes. (/) The game is simplified and practically blocked for either side in all directions. Neither player can hope to open the game without much weakening his position, and a draw is the natural result. (J) Both parties have exercised their ingenuity in attempts to win. hut each play was carefully on the watch, and a forced draw is now the result. on A novel idea in this opening. Most practitioners of this debut develop this Knight at Q2 after advancing P--Q3, or else they play P--K3 and P--QB4 first, before bringing out QKt--B3. (In Best, undoubtedly. If Kt--K'i, Black may answer Kt--Kt 5 and exchange the important KB. (e( A weak move. He ought to have foreseen the opponent's clever reply, which either breaks White's centre or much relieves the cluster of Black's pieces on the K side. P-QB4 was the right play. ah He gives up a Paw n designedly, ...
