Le Traite des Amateurs is a chess treatise composed, by a "Society of Amateurs" contemporaries of Philidor; who all frequented the Cafe de la Regence, in Paris. Of these, the strongest players were Bernard, Carlier, Leger, and Verdoni. Philidor, constantly resident in London, took no part in writing the "Traite des Amateurs;" which in fact embodies many criticisms and comments upon his earlier printed book. Only four masters of the group, considered the strongest, are known: Bernard, Carlier, Leger and Verdoni. A part, partially, from Verdoni, who is the only one of the Amateurs with his own entry in the Oxford Companion to Chess, not very much is… Leer más

The 2nd American Chess Congress was held at the Kennard House in Cleveland, 5-15 December 1871. Two decisive games (+2, -2, or +1 -1) were required against each opponent. There were 73 total games.

An article by Dedrle follows, in which he explains the varieties to be found in the field of echoes and gives 28 examples. The main part of the book is made up of 674 specimens, classified according to the nature of the mates. A diagram at the top of each page shows the type of mate which is worked into the positions following on that page, enabling the reader to see how different composers treat the same theme. Included are direct mates of varying lengths, self-mates, various Fairy problems and composed end games.
