The reason I post these introductions before I actually publish the
book is that I eagerly await corrections or criticisms that you may
provide.

I corrected the error of stating that the Chess Olympiad and World War
II started in 1938 rather than 1939 almost as soon as I had posted it
here.

Of course, the reason for my error was that Olympiads are usually held
in even-numbered years.

Anyway, the book is out and published now and you can buy it on the
Internet or at a bookstore near you.

Really ? you do, do you ? you mean you "eagerly" employ the gruppen as a
de-facto proofer ? you pay how much for this Samuel ?

That did not start until 1950. Of the first nine chess Olympiads,
only three — 1928, 1930 and 1936 — took place in even years. The rest
— 1927, 1931, 1933, 1935, 1937 and 1939 — were all in odd-numbered
years.

The book is not edited by CHO'D Alexander. It is by CHO'D, he wrote
it!

This is a difference of opinion.

There have been several editions of this work. Some say that C H O'D
Alexander was the author. Others say that he was the editor.
