I am a New York-based writer, documentary producer, and chess expert (USCF rating ~2060). My insane obsessive hobby for a long time has been to play through old chess games, more or less in chronological order. I am interested in the evolution of chess and looking to follow various ideas as they develop over time, but most of all, I am interested in the players and in treating them sort of the way an art survey book would treat artists. The theory is that each top player – to consistently defeat other grandmasters – has to bring something new to the game, has to have a philosophy of chess that sets them apart.  I am thrilled to share that there is now a book version of the blog available at Amazon.com.  For non-chess-writing (if there really is such a thi...

I was born in 1960 - the year a young Mikhail Tal became World Champion. After leaving the British junior chess circuit I started working unusual hours and have done ever since. For that reason I had very little chance to play chess as an adult, and instead bought chess books. At least 1000 have passed through my hands, and I have gone over at least 50,000 Master level games. I am fascinated by chess as an evolutionary process, and have been writing about chess history since the days when I had to type up articles on a stencil for a 'duplicating machine'.  There is a saying :- 'No-one is entitled to an opinion. Everyone is entitled to an informed opinion. Who would say that they are entitled to ignorance.' Sometimes things that ' everybody knows' are not true. All chess players are my f...

Chess is one of the oldest surviving games on the planet, with our current rule system being mostly intact since the 1400s. It's also the most widely played game on the planet. I take interest in the intersection of these two pieces of trivia: the history of competition. I mostly write about 19th century tournaments in my "Winner's POV" series, but if I find something else that's interesting to write about, I shall (ideas welcome).
