Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. Revised Edition. 1967 reprint of 1947 revised edition. Spine creased, wrappers toned, ink name inside. Text clean and unmarked. xxvii, 372 pp. Translated into English by Philip Hereford, and edited with an introduction for this edition by Fred Reinfeld. Almost a century ago, a chess book about positional play and strategic concepts appeared on the chess scene. Written by a Latvian grandmaster residing in Denmark, it quickly took its place as one of the classics of chess literature. Since then, Aron Nimzovich's magnum opus My System has been embraced by every generation of chessplayers. For many years, Nimzovich was known as the "Stormy Petrel" of the chess world. Today, his profound theories of positional chess are accepted as a matter of course, and a knowledge of them is essential to every player who wants to improve their game.
