This is by a large degree the most comprehensive accounting of the games of this brilliant chess player. Presented are 2543 of Alekhine´s games, in an exhaustive catalog that is the result of many years of digging - an effort unparalleled in the history of chess game collections. Many of the games are annotated by Alekhine and 1868 diagrams appear overall. The book includes games from his earliest correspondence tournaments in 1902 through his final match with Francisco Lupi at Estoril, Portugal, in January 1946.

Zehn Jahre für Aljechins Partien
Ein umfassendes, mittels alter Quellen erarbeitetes Buch zum Königsgambit sähe ähnlich aus: über 820 Seiten im Großformat, mehr als 2,2 Kilogramm Gewicht. Zehn Jahre lang haben die beiden Verfasser an diesem Grundlagenwerk gearbeitet und in fast allen in Frage kommenden Quellen nach verschollenen Partien des vierten Weltmeisters, Alexander Aljechin, gesucht. In Kaissiber 7 (S. 44) wurde die CD-Rom Weltmeister Aljechin mit 1692 Aljechin-Partien besprochen. Skinner und Verhoeven können jedoch über 2500 Partien vorweisen, darunter viele Simultan- und Blindpartien. Der Wert ihrer Arbeit für andere Schachforscher - wenn man dies messen könnte - ist wenigstens verdoppelt durch den Umstand, daß sie die Fundstellen genau angeben sowie bei wichtigen Partien mehrere Quellen auflisten, wo Erläuterungen anderer Meister zu finden sind. Oft sind Aljechins Kommentare (in Englisch) hinzugefügt - außer bei Partien, die in seinen ohnehin recht verbreiteten Partiesammlungen enthalten sind.
Ein Autor, der sich mit Kieninger - Aljechin, München 1941, näher befassen will, erfährt zum Beispiel von diesen Fundstellen, eventuell mit Kommentaren bedeutender Meister: 1. Dt. Schachblätter, 1941, S. 154-5; 2. Schackvärlden 1941, S. 299-300; 3. Sach 1941, S. 159, 4. Enroque 1941, Band 1, Nr. 9, S. 13; 5. Munich 1941, S. 115-7; 6. ¡Legado!, S. 137-40.
Dieser Band verschafft Fans und Schachhistorikern daher besseren Zugang zu Aljechins Schaffen als je zuvor. Was natürlich fehlt, sind Anmerkungen, die Aljechin über Begegnungen anderer Spieler geschrieben hat. Aber solche Arbeiten werden oft mit weniger Eifer erledigt, als wenn es um die eigenen Partien geht. Als Beispiel sei eine Stellung zitiert aus Keres - K. Richter, München 1941:
Weiß: Ke1, Dd4, Td1, Th1, Lf1, Lg3, Sc3, Ba2, b2, c4, e2, f2, g2, h4
Schwarz: Kd7, Dd8, Ta8, Th8, Lb4, Lf5, Se4, Ba7, b7, c7, d6, f7, g5, h6
Paul Keres zog 13. De5, was Aljechin im Turnierbuch nicht bemängelte (er hatte zuvor an 11. h4 etwas auszusetzen). Bei einer eigenen Partie hätte Aljechin in der Analyse vermutlich gesehen, daß 13. c5! stark war, etwa 13. ... Lxc5 14.Dd5! Sxg3 15. fxg3, und Dame d5 greift beide schwarzen Läufer an. Der Kommentar Aljechins wurde oft nachgedruckt, obwohl Aljechin auch die weiteren Wendepunkte der Partie nicht gut herausarbeitete.
Zu Alexander Alekhine's Chess Games ist noch hervorzuheben, daß das an sich schon brillante Material auch ausgezeichnet präsentiert wird. Die begleitenden Texte der Autoren sind informativ und unterhaltsam, alle nötigen Verzeichnisse sind vorhanden. So lassen sich auch die drei Englund-Gambite und das Elefantengambit rasch aufsuchen.
