Chessical Member since Nov-03-03 · Last seen Jan-21-21 I am an UK chess player who plays OTB and correspondence. I particularly appreciate the games of Tal, Alekhine, Tarrasch and Capablanca. I am particularly interested in the history of chess since the 19th century. I now spend most of my time here working on games collections. http://publ.lib.ru/ARCHIVES/SH/%27%... https://new.uschess.org/chess-life-...
