“Excellent”—British Chess News; “A wonderful account of Bird’s 64 year chess career...fascinating journey through the chess landscape of the 19th century”—Huffington Post; “Well researched.... As with all McFarland books, the quality of the publication is excellent.”—Mind's Eye Press; “McFarland, the premier publisher on chess history, recently put out one of its best ever books dedicated to the life and games of the English master H.E. Bird. Everything one could want in a book dedicated to an important but neglected figure in chess history. H.E. Bird is an outstanding book which pays proper homage to not only Bird, but the period of English chess in which he was an active player. Highly recommended”—IM John Donaldson, (JeremySilman.com); “A truly wonderful work on the life and games from the great Henry Edward Bird!”—Chessbooks.nl; “This comprehensive first biography of Bird provides a detailed account of his personal life and a deeply researched coverage of his feats at the chess board”—New in Chess.
