The Cuban Jose Raul Capablanca, World chess Champion 1921-1927, was
considered at the height of his career to be almost unbeatable and received the
nickname "the chess machine". Even those of his colleagues who reached the
chess throne would call him a "genius" (Alekhine) or "the greatest player in the
history of chess" (Fischer). This CD came into being as a result of the
co-operation between various authors.
- The main database with all available games by Capablanca,
introduced by a biography. Approximately 300 of the games are annotated. The
largest contribution to this database was made by Peter Schneider.
- An appreciation by Dr. Robert Hübner of the 1927 WCh-Match
between Capablanca and Alekhine.
- An endgame database by GM Mihail Marin. It contains 1 text
and 14 games (or parts of games). The Romanian Grandmaster casts some light
above all on the moment of the transition to the endgame.
- A tactics database put together by Martin Seifert. Perhaps
there are not so many brilliant combinations known from Capablanca's play, but
these do exist. The author has put together a database of 103 games, in each
of which a training question (or questions) allows you to test and improve
your vision.
