The Chess-Player’s Handbook

A Popular and Scientific Introduction to the Game of Chess, Exemplified in Games Actually Played by the Greatest Masters, and Illustrated by Numerous Diagrams of Original and remarkable Positions.

Howard Stanton, Esq.

Henry G. Bohn, London. Second edition, revised, 1848. Hardcover. 5 x 7 1/2 inches. 518 pages plus 40 page catalog of books. Front and back boards joints are reinforced with Japanese mending tissue, as the joints are otherwise split—so they are attached now, but are loose.

Beautiful color frontispiece lithograph with tissue guard, titled The Sphinx and captioned White playing first mates in eleven moves. Text pages are very clean, with a few dog-eared or worn at edges. Contents include:
The King’s Knight’s Opening
The King’s Bishop’s Opening
The King’s Gambit
The Queen’s Gambit
Irregular Openings: The French and Sicilian Games, The Center Counter Gambit, The Fianchetto
Endings of Games
