description: A great historical book from Chess Archaeology - covering not only the 15 round tournament (complete with detailed game annotations, photos and cross-tables) but also the qualifying rounds that led to the 1936 tournament. The authors have also included a lot of background and contemporaneous material. 'Thorough' is the best word to describe this delightful book which sets a tough standard for all chess historians.
