Default Sultan Khan information

Jim Kerr wrote in message . ..
I am in the beginning stages of doing the research on a biography of
Sultan Khan. If anyone has any information on living people who
interacted with him, please forward me whatever information you can.

I could also use any leads on difficult-to-find or out-of-print
articles or books that are about or mention him. I have access to the
major chess magazines from that time, as well as the English
newspapers around then, but it will be difficult for me to find
anecdotes about him if they are mentioned in other biographies or
apparantly non-Khan-related chess books I am not familiar with, so
your expertise is most welcome.

Finding information on his time before and after he was in England may
turn out to be a lost cause, but I would most especially appreciate
any information about these times.

This is to be a general interest biography, focusing on his remarkable
tale. It is not going to be a "chess" biography so much as the
biography of someone who made his mark playing chess.

Thanks in advance,

Jake Kerr

R.N. Coles wrote a book about Sultan Khan. It's long out of print,
but you can find copies for under $20 at
