1851 LONDON. Staunton (H.): The Chess Tournament. A Collection of the Games Played at this Celebrated Assemblage. Bohn, 1852. 1st Edn.
Bound in an early red cloth, good. pp lxci,377. Numerous games with brief notes, and much on the organization and running of the tournament. An excellent account of the first International chess tournament, and considerably scarcer than Staunton's other works. LN 5179.
There is a small stamp of the Hastings Chess Club on the half-title page and an inscription as follows "Dr. S. Tarrasch from". So it appears this copy was given to Tarrasch by Hastings CC. There are some pencil numbers against the games.
