Reseña del libro "Max Euwe World Champion!: The Champion's Years 1935-1937 (en Inglés)"

A TRUE CHESS WORLD CHAMPION When Max Euwe defeated Alexander Alekhine in 1935, the chess world was stunned. A modest Dutch mathematics teacher had dethroned the most charismatic and feared champion of his time. Almost immediately, doubts arose: Was Euwe truly worthy of the crown? Did he really belong in the lineage of Anderssen, Morphy, Steinitz, Lasker, Capablanca and Alekhine himself? Nearly a century later, these questions still influence how Euwe is remembered -- and, all too often, how he is underestimated. This book takes a fresh look at Euwe's years as World Champion and presents solid evidence. It challenges the familiar narrative that portrays his reign as a brief intermezzo, largely created by Alekhine's powerful and enduring self-portrait. Euwe himself never played that game. He analysed his victories soberly, credited his opponents generously and avoided self-glorification, even when it was fully deserved. Drawing on contemporary sources, tournament results, and a close examination of Euwe's games with today's best computers, the authors place his achievements in their proper historical context. The picture that emerges is clear: Euwe did not merely win the title -- he belonged at the very top. In the mid-1930s, he was consistently on par with and at times surpassed the strongest players in the world. This book offers a balanced reassessment. However, it leads to an unmistakable conclusion: Max Euwe was not a footnote in chess history -- he was a true World Champion.
