Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The definitive biography of a South Asian genius who conquered the international chess world on the eve of decolonizationIn the late 1920s and 30s, the international chess scene was rocked by the success of Sultan Khan, a self-taught prodigy from colonial Punjab. In a brief international caree…r, Khan stunned the chess elite by repeatedly defeating the worlds best players and winning the British Chess Championship three times. Despite his dazzling creativity and peerless endgame technique, Khans legacy has long been marginalized or inaccurately portrayed. Written by Khans son and granddaughter, Endgame of Empire offers a comprehensive biography of this trailblazing genius who became the first Asian and first person of color to rise to the top of international chess.From its origins in South Asia, chess had developed into an emblem of European culture. With Khans arrival to reclaim the game, it became a catalyst for the many ways in which individuals, ideologies, and empires clashed in the interwar period. Endgame of Empire offers a vivid portrait of Khan as he navigated challenges on and off the chessboard. His rise was meteoric, but also fraught with prejudice and ultimately cut short by the political realities of his time. Set in the broader context of race, empire, and decolonization, the book celebrates Khans genius as a strategist while also uncovering the difficult circumstances under which he conquered international chess. It also provides the first extended accounts of Khans life in colonial India before his chess career and his life after professional chess in the Pakistan whose arrival he had long desired.In an appendix, former US Chess Champion Sam Shankland walks the reader through six of Khans finest victories. This instructive commentary provides both an account of Khans style and a lesson for beginning and experienced chess players alike in the strategic ideas at which Khan was ahead of his time.At a moment of emergent nationalism in South Asia, Khans unassuming brilliance on the chessboard came to represent something greater: a graceful assertion of equality and a prelude to independence. Blending intimate family recollections, archival discoveries, and sharp historical analysis, Endgame of Empire reclaims a legacy long overshadowed by race, empire, and myth and offers a playbook in holding ones own through adversity. The definitive biography of a South Asian genius who conquered the international chess world on the eve of decolonization Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
