PREFACE
As a recreation for the idle hours of life, the wide and varied domain of chess, but more especially that branch so aptly termed the
Poetry of the game, has been to me during the past thirty years an
unfailing source of delightful entertainment a perennial banquet, indeed, that has never suffered the appetite for its social and
intellectual fare to languish. Votaries of every clime and country
have contributed the fruits of their genius and industry to the repast, and many warm and valued friendships have been cemented by kindred tastes and sympathies. But how few, alas, of the
early companions remain to share the feast! The empire of earthly
pleasures is frail and uncertain, and its curfew must toll for us all.
While lingering at a somewhat late and protracted dessert with an
ever unsated yearning for Cassas bounty, I have gathered up
some of the crumbs that have fallen from my table, which I wish
to offer as a souvenir to the friends who still abide to minister to
my enjoyment. If, to them, these morsels will serve to impart an
occasional gleam of pleasant recollection, the aim and ambition
which were the impelling influences that led to this collection will
be fully gratified.
In the following pages the conventional terms of White and
Black have been retained, but the forces of the chess-board are respectively presented in Red and Blue. With the exception of a few
of the older compositions included in this selection, that have
been reset and remoulded, all have passed through the ordeal of
public scrutiny, and I trust that it may not be unreasonable to
hope that they will successfully maintain an unblemished integrity against all further analytical research.
C. A. G.
Brooklyn, September, 1890.

PREFACE TO ELECTRONICAL EDITION

This edition is based on the original edition, published privately in
New York, 1890.
As the preface indicates the original was printed in colour: red
and dark blue was used for the white and black pieces, which were
set on a board printed in grey. These elegancies have not been retained in the present edition.
Solutions have been converted from descriptive to algebraic
notation. Problems up to five moves have been checked by Matthieu Leschemelles computer program Problemiste 2.14b. Remaining problems up to 7 moves have been checked by Popeye,
and all further problems only briefly tested for obvious errors.
Any found errors have been indicated in the solutions in brackets, and in the diagrams by the symbol [], indicating a problem
without a solution in the stipulated number of moves, and the
symbol [*], indicating a problem with several solutions.
A few source references have been added.
