RISE OF INDIAN CHESS
Quality and quantity rarely sit together happily. But the story of chess in India in recent years is illustrative of one such rarity. India’s rise to the top of the chess world towards the end of the first quarter of the 21st century didn’t happen with the coming of age of one isolated genius: that came about with Viswanathan Anand at the turn of the millennium.
Chess is widely believed to have had its origin in Chaturanga in India, but in the modern version of the game, Indians have come to the party late. India is almost in the same position as the Soviet Union was in the 20th century. If you beat an Indian, there sure is another waiting for you.
Black and White : The rise of Indian Chess is a book that documents this remarkable story with first person accounts from some of the very people who are the main characters Out of stock
