Paul Morphy

Paul Charles Morphy (22 tháng 6 năm 1837 – 10 tháng 7 năm 1884) là một kỳ thủ cờ vua người Mỹ. 
Ông được coi là bậc thầy cờ vua vĩ đại nhất trong thời đại của ông và là vô địch cờ vua thế giới không chính thức. Morphy là một thần đồng cờ vua. 
Ông được gọi là "Niềm tự hào và nỗi buồn của cờ vua" bởi vì ông đã có một sự nghiệp cờ vua ngắn gọn và huy hoàng, nhưng đã nghỉ chơi cờ trong khi vẫn còn trẻ. Bobby Fischer đưa ông vào danh sách mười kỳ thủ vĩ đại nhất của mọi thời đại, và mô tả ông "có lẽ là kỳ thủ chơi chính xác nhất đã từng sống".

Bibliography
*Paul Morphy, The Pride and Sorrow of Chess by David Lawson, 424 pages; Mckay, 1976 – The only book-length biography of Paul Morphy in English, it corrects numerous historical errors that have cropped up, including Morphy's score as a child versus Löwenthal.- Books.Gooble.com, Frederick Milne Edge: Paul Morphy, the Chess Champion. An Account of His Career in America and Europe. New York 1859. Edge was a newspaperman who attached himself to Morphy during his stay in England and France, accompanying Morphy everywhere, and even acting at times as his unofficial butler and servant. Thanks to Edge, much is known about Morphy that would be unknown otherwise, and many games Morphy played were recorded only thanks to Edge. Contains information about the First American Chess Congress, and the history of English chess clubs in and before Morphy's time.
