278,95 kr. John Donaldson (1928-2014) wrote The Spring Creek that was to capture the Spring Creek that he remembered in his youth. Chances are you never traveled through Spring Creek during the thirties, forties, or fifties, because not many people did. His father, LR, was a Republican who owned the general store, while his mother was a pro-Roosevelt Democrat who served as a deacon in the Congregational church. Despite poverty and passionate political squabbles, we know the country survived. And in ironic hindsight, the one thing that all friends, relatives, and neighbors would have agreed upon is that -back then-they never realized that they were supposed to have been depressed in his in the Depression.John Donaldson was reared in Spring Creek Pennsylvania and attended Thiel Collage in Northern Pennsylvania. He published many technical papers about electroplating and metal finishing and has been a featured columnist for magazines in the metalworking industry. When he retired, the author resided in California where he worked as a consultant and wrote these funny books about his youth.This book is the combination of John's two book, "The Spring Creek That Was" and "A Spring Creek, PA Scrapbook". There is a great deal of overlap in the topics between the two books, so I have merged them into one. Please see John's Donaldson's other funny books on Spring Creek, "When Turkey Talked and Politicians were People" and "Accidental All Star" -Don

318,95 kr. The Man Who Would Be King Akiva Rubinstein occupies a unique position in chess history. One of the greatest artists ever to sit down at a chessboard, Rubinstein was also the strongest player never to get a shot at the title of world champion. The Life & Games of Akiva Rubinstein, Volume 1: Uncrowned King focuses on the years 1882-1920, covering Rubinstein's rise from a modest upbringing to his emergence as Emanuel Lasker's chief challenger in the last years leading up to World War I. It also examines the effects this conflict had on his sensitive psyche and the way it influenced his play in the post-war years. This is most definitive work ever done on the first part of Rubinstein's career, this revised and expanded edition of The Life & Games of Akiva Rubinstein, Volume 1: Uncrowned King offers almost 500 games, many of them deeply annotated with notes translated from top players of the pre-World War I era, including Lasker, Tarrasch, Schlechter and Rubinstein. The authors have also made many new annotations to the games and uncovered quite a bit of interesting material including recent discoveries on Rubinstein's stay in Sweden after World War I. This is a re-release of the second edition of The Life & Games of Akiva Rubinstein, Volume 1: Uncrowned King. First released in 2006, this outstanding work has a wealth of crosstables, archival photos, multiple indexes and thorough bibliography, offering a treasure-trove for the Rubinstein fan and chess aficionado.

107,95 - 228,95 kr. Hume's 1779 book on the existence of God remains vastly influential. Using the conceit of a cleverly crafted fictional conversation, Dialogues argues on the one hand that a universe that looks designed must have a designer-and that if it has as 'an uncaused first cause,' that cause can only be God.

223,95 kr. Many players are attracted to the Dragon Sicilian, but are put off by the fierce mating attacks that White can launch. In the Accelerated Dragon, Black aims for an improved version, saving a move with his queen's pawn. If White tries to ignore the difference, Black's instant detonation of the centre will come as an unwelcome cold shower! The authors show that White's main reply, the Maroczy Bind, is not so fearsome as was once thought. Black has many ways to break out, while quite often it is possible to manoeuvre around White's 'binding' pawns and show that they imprison White's pieces as much as they do Black's. Written by two outstanding experts on the Accelerated Dragon, this book offers complete coverage of all lines of the Accelerated Dragon and many ideas for breaking the critical Maroczy Bind. International Master John Donaldson is Associate Editor of the acclaimed magazine inside Chess (Seattle). He is the author of several books, including theoretical opening works and painstakingly researched player biographies. He plays regularly and successfully in North American tournaments. International Master Jeremy Silman is co-author (with Yasser Seirawan) of Microsoft Press's series of chess books, and author of several openings books. (320 pages, 5 3/4' X 8 1/4')
