The primary fault of the Chess Manuals hitherto published, has been that they have either been written too much on the scientific plan, if we may so express it, or, in going to the other extreme have been made so Simple in their wording as to be devoid of in terest to the more intelligent class of readers. The happy medium has been the one thing sought for by the editor of this Manual. In doing this he has en deavored to combine instructive and interesting reading, and added such information in regard to the prominent events of the American chess world as would be appro priate for a Manual of the game. In the first part of the Manual will be found a guide to young beginners in the game, from the pen of Mr. Charles H. Stanley, taken from a work on chess, pub lished by Mr. De Witt some twenty years ago. These chapters cannot well be improved upon, and as they were written when that chess veteran was in his prime we present them unchanged.
