Description:
Lasker was, essentially, a complete chessplayer and his games feel thoroughly modern. Indeed many contemporary elite players (the most obvious one being the current world champion Magnus Carlsen) exhibit a very similar style.
Review Quotes: Lasker: Move by Move by Zenón Franco does justice to the great champion. Using the move by move format, which encourages active learning through questions and exercises, the Paraguayan grandmaster covers all aspects of the game. This is a well-researched book with Franco referencing and adding to Soltis and Nunn's work with the result that the annotations are more detailed than usual for books in the Move by Move series.--John Donaldson, International master, International Master
