Excerpt from Chess Sparks, or Short and Bright Games of ChessA spark must, of course, be brief as Well as bright, and so these Chess Games are limited to twenty moves before a winning position is obtained.It may be thought that such games cannot be worth atten tion, because they must be necessarily more or less badly played. This may be partly true, but it is equally true that the length of a game affords no proof of the soundness of the play. A game without any mistake on either side is generally dull and uninteresting. Moreover, it may be just as useful, and some times nearly as difficult, to detect the error in a short game as in a long one.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
