Paul Morphy: His Later Life by Charles A. Buck is a brief account of the final years of Paul Morphy.
It portrays Morphy’s life after chess fame as troubled: he retired early, failed to establish a legal career, became increasingly isolated, and showed signs of mental decline. The book emphasizes a tragic contrast between his brilliance at chess and his difficult later life, though some details are considered unreliable by modern historians.
Will H. Lyons. Newport, Kentucky. 1902. 40 pages.
Condition: Contemporary binding. Crack inside at gutter. From David DeLucia's chess library.
