Play on the Wings: 175 pages with diagrams and indices. Octavos (8 3/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's blue, black and brown cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jackets. Translated by John Littlewood. (Lusis: 1010) First editions.Every chess player hopes to set off brilliant combinations and win games in a blaze of glory. Such combinations do not come into being by themselves, however; they appear only as the result of proper chess strategy. It is therefore surprising that so few books deal with this highly important subject, and understandable that Pachman's modern classic has been so enthusiastically received by chessplayers at all levels.

First edition.This international tournament, held in honor of the 1000th anniversary of Hungary's turbulent existence was the first one ever staged on Magyar soil.
