The Chess Player's Chronicle (Vol.10 (1849))

Hardback

Description:
Packed with game scores and problems as usual, this seems to have been a relatively slow year for hard news. The editor resorts to odd articles, such as a phrenological study of Mr. Harrwitz, the celebrated blindfold player. There is also some jingoistic bombast about how wonderful England is and the unvanquished prowess of her champion". (Reviewed by BCM). 380 pages, (EUR 29.00)
