  MissScarlett: <A practice game to prepare for his match against Frank Marshall; played on March 14, 1909 in New York, New York.>

Wrong game. It is indeed from the 1910 New York State Chess Association championship, but Caparros has the date wrong again; rounds 1-3 were all played on February 22nd. Correction submitted.

Jan-30-16  TheFocus: <MissScarlett> You are correct. The practice game was a 63 move Ruy Lopez.

  MissScarlett: That and Capa's 1910 defeat of Shipley in the Manhattann CC vs Franklin CC match are missing from the DB, so I'll submit those.
Jan-30-16  TheFocus: <MissScarlett> You are doing great work.

Are you planning on doing a Capablanca book?

  MissScarlett: My book is here. More importantly, are you planning on doing a Fischer book?

It's interesting that Donaldson and Tangborn's latest on Fischer's simul games is only available in ebook form. But I have to wonder, i) how many copies it will sell, and ii) how long before all its newly discovered games turn up on <cg.com>.

Jan-30-16  TheFocus: <MissScarlett: My book is here.>

Publish or perish!

<More importantly, are you planning on doing a Fischer book?>

Fischer will be done when I can afford to travel and complete my research. Not everything can be found online.

Oh, how true.

<It's interesting that Donaldson and Tangborn's latest on Fischer's simul games is only available in ebook form. But I have to wonder, i) how many copies it will sell, and ii) how long before all its newly discovered games turn up on <cg.com>.>

I am going to ask John about this. Maybe a print edition will come out? I will let you and the Fischer fans know what he says.

I prefer chess books in traditonal form, but do ask Donaldson about the proportion of sales of <Legend on the Road> in both formats.

Jan-30-16  TheFocus: <how long before all its newly discovered games turn up on <cg.com>

I am going to submit as many as there are. Lots missing here.
