A mosaic of facts, events, biographies, and captivating, sometimes almost detective stories about the players — people whose role in the Game was most noticeable. 
In the second book, it tells about the strategic moves of opponents on the chessboard of Eurasia that preceded the events of the 20th century — the two world wars and the death of empires.
