The Search for Chess Perfection (Purdy Series)

About this book

John Hammond one of Australias wealthiest men was a close friend of C.J.S. Purdy. After Purdys death he and IM Robert Jamieson put together the "best" of Purdys writings from his various chess magazines and published them as a book. Purdy had a knack for writing about chess which few could equal. In his quirky language he would always get to the core of the issue not matter how complicated. This edition is an expansion on "CJS Purdy His Life His Games His Writings" with additional material and corrections.
