Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Draughts Praxis, or Modern Match Games: A Practical Guide to Scientific Checkers The study of games that have been played across the board, as a guide to practical Skill, cannot be too highly commended. The examples given in this work are eminently suitable for that purpose, being the product of the Combined skill of the finest players of the present day, Opposed to each other in Match or Tourney play. The Chapter for Beginners, and Notes to the Games, Will enable the tyro to pick up the points of the game; and the explanation Of the important element, the Move, and examples, of its practical application in many Of the Elementary End Games, will greatly assist him to extend his knowledge of the subject. As regards the arrangement of the play, that adopted in the jordan-freedman and English Tourney Games commends itself to the learner while the style followed in the Scottish Tourney Games is the handiest for purposes of reference. Play on the Switcher Opening (11-15, 21-17, 9-13) is given under the heading Edinburgh, Part I (9-13, 21 Several of the other Openings may be run into each other in. Similar fashion, and my original intention was to combine the play under one Opening in the same way but the reflection that there would thus be lost to the student many valuable lessons on the trans formation Oi one Opening into another, decided me to give the remainder of the games as played. A few variations arising from different Openings are thus repeated, the full continuation being given in each instance, being much handier for the student than a note of reference to another page for the play. The lamented death Of my esteemed friend, Mr. Richard jordan, is deplored by all draughts players; but his games will for ever keep his name alive, and the record of. His last great match is not the least interesting feature of this volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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
