First published in 1900. London 1899 was without a doubt one of the very strongest tournaments ever held on British soil. Almost every great master of the day was present including the past and reigning world champions. It proved to be the swan song of the old champion Steinitz but for Lasker it was a glittering success which propelled him way beyond the other grandmasters of the time. London 1899 goes down in history as one of the great Lasker victories along with St Petersburg 1896, St Petersburg 1914 and New York 1924. The 1896 and 1924 events are both republished in the Hardinge Simpole series.

London International Chess Congress, 189
Amazingly detailed analysis of the 2005 World Championship tournament that crowned Topalov. Although the number of GMs present, nor the level of their play, does not rival the famous predecessors tournaments of New York 1924 and Zurich 1953, this tournament featured eight of the best in the world in 2005 in pitched battle. The double round-robin tournament produced some great match-ups and significant battles. So it is super strong and historically important tournament. This book offers complete descriptions and analysis of the participants, their prior games against each other, and in-depth coverage for every game of all 14 rounds of this championship. Agree, that it has the potential to become a classic.
