Hi chess players!!!! I would like to know the names of old chess players back in 18's and 19's . But why? I read that eleventh world chess champion Bobby Fischer studied all past players and that was the key of his success in chess. Thanks!!!

Notmtwain I am referring to the chess player , not to the events that happened( that will not improve my playing skills at all) .

ChessMicky is right, but choose one of the seven names to start with, is difficult.

When it suits your own style, take Emanuel Lasker, fighter to win.

Good books are written about his way of playing chess.

Ask batgirl. Probably you'll get some stuff to start with.
