The Art of Sacrifice in Chess

The Art of Sacrifice in Chess"The beauty of a game of chess is usually appraised, and with good reason, according to the sacrifices it contains. On principle we incline to rate a sacrificial game more highly than a positional game. Instinctively we place the moral value above the scientific. We honor Capablanca, but our hearts beat higher when Morphys name is mentioned." Introduction. Perhaps the strongest Austrian born grandmaster of the20th century, Rudolf Spielmann (18831942)
