CALYPSO CHESS: The best chess games (1970-2010) of Dr. Philip Corbin, FIDE Master, Barbados

by Nigel Short (foreword)

FIDE Master Dr. Philip Corbin, the former 7-time National Chess Champion of Barbados, and nicknamed "The Caribbean Tal" for his attacking ("Calypso chess") style of play, has candidly annotated his most memorable chess games over a 40 year period from 1970 to 2010 in this new e-book. These games range from fiery friendlies to epic encounters over 12 Olympiads against some of the world's choicest players. CALYPSO CHESS chronicles not only Philip's own chess biography, but the development of chess in Barbados over four decades (1970-2010). It features his 60 "best games" selection of the 300 entertaining chess games in his original hard-copy CALYPSO CHESS book (published in 2011), and includes several whole game (gif) animations of games (including 5 at Olympiad level!) which ended in checkmate.
