Suggested New Section

I was wondering wether any would be interested in collaborating on a book about the history of chess that would explain how all the accepted theories came to be formed and what the major movements were in chess thinking. Maybe from the lives of the great chess masters and what new ideas they brought to the game. I am always surprised at how differently chess was played 200 years ago when all out attack was considered the only way to victory and I think it is important and interesting to understand the developements. I am by no means an expert or even a well read amatuer bu I would be happy to help research and organise if anyone else would be interested. Storeye (talk) 10:02, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

I might consider doing that later. However, it's probably going to be delayed, what with all my other projects
