About the Author

From Chess History and Literature Society:
European Chess Championship
Who has never heard of “The Chess Player, Nottingham” – meanwhile a one-man show of our friend Tony Gillam – “Hunter of the Lost Games”. Uncounted – in the very meaning of the word – are all his chess publications; a good insight into Tony’s productivity, but also into his “ups and downs” is given in Sarah Hurst’s article in “Curse of Kirsan, Russell Enterprises 2002”; also “CHESS, July 1999”. With “Munich 1942” I have chosen one of Tony’s recent works to which I personally attach considerable significance.”
