1900 Century Chess Chess World champion emanuel lasker wins the paris tournament, ahead of harry pillsbury, géza maróczy and frank marshall. the tournament is held as part of the exposition universelle. richard teichmann wins the london tournament. carl schlechter wins the tournament at vienna. Use features like bookmarks, note taking and highlighting while reading a century of chess: book i: 1900 1909. It’s called a century of chess: 1900 1909. i’ve been sort of pleased with myself, tbh, that i’ve written only a limited amount about chess here, but the truth is that chess takes up some absurd percentage of my brain space. The world champion was the german emanuel lasker, and tournaments took place in paris, monte carlo, cambridge springs, and st. peterburg. the key contestants were familiar names such as pillsbury, schlechter, tarrasch, marshall, maroczy, rubinstein, and many more. The years 1900 1909 featured the rise of a number of younger players—younger than emanuel lasker and wilhelm steinitz—who were ascending in chess esteem through their tournament and match play. Sam’s taste in games is agreeable to my own. every game in this book deserves to be here, and it’s incredible that he was able to concentrate an entire decade’s worth of chess developments into 41 games. sam goes in chronological order, tournament by tournament, match by match, from 1900 to 1909.
