“The Soviet Chess School” ISBN 4871874613 is a completely different book
from “The Soviet School of Chess” ISBN 4871878198 . “The Soviet Chess
School” is not an upgrade, revision or sequel to “The Soviet School of
Chess”. It is an entirely different work, even though it is by the same
two authors and the title is almost exactly the same. “The Soviet Chess
School” has biographies and lots of games and pictures of players such
as Kasparov, Karpov and Spassky whereas these players are not mentioned
in the 32-years earlier work “The Soviet School of Chess”. Comparing
these books to each other is like comparing apples to oranges. They are
completely different, so it cannot be said that one is better than the
other. “The Soviet School of Chess” was first published in 1951 in
Russian and then translated and published in English in 1958. “The
Soviet Chess School” was first published in 1983 in Moscow USSR. It does
not appear ever to have been published in Russian. “The Soviet Chess
School” covers a broader time period, starting with the invention of
chess, 1500 years ago. It states that chess came to Russia in the 11th
or 12th centuries and not from Europe but directly from Persia or
Arabia. This is demonstrated by the different names for the chess
pieces, such as “Ladia” meaning boat in contrast to the European word
“rook” for the same piece and “Ferz” or vizier for the piece that is
called “Queen” in most European languages. “The Soviet Chess School”
states that the Tzars of Russia, Ivan the Terrible (1530-1584), Peter
the Great (1672-1725) and Paul I (1754-1801) were all chess players. It
recounts incidents of them playing chess, including a visit in 1781 by
Paul I to Paris where he visited a chess club.
