It's cool to just grab an old book and watch the games

Before computers, VCR's, microfishes, pagers, cable, wifi, discs, tablets and cell phones, there was the book! One finger on your place and the other hand is used to move... Timeless!!

This short is delightfully entertaining.  It's from, "The King Hunt" by W.H. Cozens, 1970!  The game with Staunton and an Amateur.  It made me remember why I thought I could have beaten those players back then.  Then again it also reminded me of how much I learned from analysis.  Black is winning this game and could have even forced a perpetual up to move 21.  They both were psyched out by the Gambit!!  

How about that Knight and the repetitive variations of checkmates.  Fun
