Is there a good book on morphy ?

Seems like there isn't good collections on morphy games, anyone knows ?

thank you.

I am using del Rosario's book and like it a lot. It covers around 70 Morphy games I think.

A First Book of Morphy by Frisco Del Rosario

If you want lots of Morphy games, you can find about 300 of them in Sergeant's book, but I do not think it has ever been converted to algebraic. There is game commentary, but, of course, with so many games, there is less room for explanation in any one of them. On the other hand, there is more about Morphy's life than you are likely to find in any book written in the last two decades. Lawson's Morphy book covered his life very thoroughly, and perhaps subsequent authors have felt it best to not devote too much space to biographical information. Del Rosario selected a much smaller number (than Sergeant) of games "to illustrate basic principles" (using algebraic notation).
In his book, Morphy: Move by Move, GM Franco uses Morphy's games for instruction at a somewhat higher level than the instruction in the Del Rosario book.

The quality of Morphy's play is a particular focus of GM Beim in his book, Paul Morphy: A Modern Perspective.

Everyman Chess has recently reprinted an examination of selected Morphy games by Chris Ward.

Perhaps the most complete readily available Morphy game collection can be found in a Dover reprint of a study of Morphy by Shibut. If I remember correctly, Shibut was primarily concerned with the role of Morphy in the evolution of chess.
Just five years ago, it became possible to obtain an English translation of the monumental 1909 study of Morphy's games by Maroczy.

I think there is some new Chessbase thing about Morphy.
Staunton's Morphy commentary (primarily of historical interest) can be found in a recent reprint of Chess Praxis by Staunton. If you share my interest in what was written about Morphy around 1860, you might want to also look into reprints (in the last few decades) of works (about Morphy) by Lange and Loewenthal.

(Ironic that Morphy was discussed in a book with that title.)

Thank you very much for your sugestions.

The gold standard is David Lawson's "The Pride and Sorrow of Chess." 1976.  A 2010 reprint by Danny Aiello can be had pretty cheap on Amazon.

That's Lasker. Many people admire him.

Yeah, because Volodia put a pic of Lasker as his avatar.

Vladimir what's-his-name doesn't have a copyright on pictures of Lasker.

Well, Ed for once is using a photo of the guy who did beat the hell out of him.

You can also download my file containing all Morphy's games along with biographical and historic details:

Looks good, I'll definitely look it up.

For the life of Morphy? Certainly. For explanation of the games, one may want to consider other books.

For once? I've had this photo for months...

Sorry, I meant for starters, I'm a bit messy with English sometimes.

Thank you for the download, batgirl!

good sugestions, thank you!
