Notes

Description
"Mention the name "Colle" and many if not most chessplayers think about an opening that is both easy to play as well as one with dynamic potential. Rarely is any thought given to the man himself. Plug the word "Colle" into your favorite search engine, and, if you are lucky, you might find a reprint of the slim 1936 book by Fred Reinfeld, Colle's Chess Masterpieces. Books on the Colle System - of which there are many - will be your main search results. However, Belgian master Edgard Colle is much more than a name connected to an opening system. He was one of the most dynamic and active chess players of the 1920s and early 1930s. Though his international career lasted barely ten years, Colle played in more than 50 tournaments, as well as a dozen matches. Moreover, he played exciting and beautiful chess, full of life, vigor, imagination and creativity. As with such greats as Pillsbury and Charousek, it was a tragedy for the game that his life was cut short, at just age 34."--Amazon.com.
