Sorry for the mistake
Looking for a book in particular by some Russian guy whose name is something like "Dovstoievsky"
Sort:
Hi, I'm new here.
I used to play chess quite a lot when I was in my early 20's (I'm 50 now). Since then I've played occasianally but lost a lot of my knowledge of openings and the rest, which I got from a friend back then (this guy has been junior champion of the Gard Département, that's in France, and I managed to beat him a few times).
I know there might have also others books that are worth it, even better, but this is the book I really like to find, as it really introduced me to the game.
It was quite a big book (400/500 pages) covering openings,, middle game, end games...
I said "Dovstoievsky" in the title of my message but I'm not speaking of the Russian writer of course, but a name close enough IIRC.
I tried google, all I found was books by Marc Dvoretsky, they are far too recent (early 90's) and I'm pretty sure the book I'm refering to is from the early 20th century (1920's ?) and as far as I know it was considered a must to start playing.
I know that's a lot of blurry informations, but if something comes to your mind, I will really be grateful. I'd really like to restart with this particular book.
Thanks
