Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Game of Draughts or Checkers Simplified and Explained, With Practical Diagrams and Illustrations: Containing the Eighteen Standard Games, With Over Two Hundred of the Best Variations, Selected From the Various Authors The design of the Editor of this work has been to supply a book of home amusement. The beauties of the game of Draughts are so little understood in common, although the game itself is extensively used; 'and for social pastime, it having so many advantages over any other game, it was believed that a work that could make plain the principles of this interesting and scientific game, would do much to supplant in the family circle the amusement furnished by games of a less elevated character.

Download or read book The History of Checkers Draughts written by Govert Westerveld and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern game of chess started around 1475 in Spain when the queen and bishop got a much more powerful move. It was called ""Mad Queen Chess."" These new rules quickly spread throughout western Europe and in Spain. The enhanced move for the chess queen started after the coronation of the powerfull queen of Spain Isabella I. The historical records duly note that Queen Isabella I was crowned with the sword of justice raised in front of her, and the sceptre and throne were given to her. This allusion to the real-world event is so clear within the Scachs d'Amor poem to Isabella's actual coronation that the inspiration of Queen Isabella for the new chess queen and powerfull dama of the draughts game is unquestionable. The Spaniards like the Moors, played a game on the board of lines and called it alquerque. The game became modern draughts through being transferred to the chessboard around that time. This book is the result of at least 30 years investigations in the Spanish archives
