Bibliography

[edit]

I had a chess manual as a kid by Yuri Averbakh called "Voyage to the kingdom of chess" or something like that. Very kid-friendly, with florid and poetic language. I can't afford the time to research right now, though. --200.20.164.2 (talk) 16:01, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment

[edit]

Al-Suli's Diamond

[edit]

Is it worth noting that Averbakh was the first man to solve Al-Suli's Diamond? The problem went unsolved for over a thousand years. ChromeAce (talk) 20:02, 15 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would say yes. Quale (talk) 07:14, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
