Fred Reinfeld - his name is known to almost every chess player in America. But his accomplishments? These are not so well known. Reinfeld was one of the strongest players of his time. He was also an accomplished author of some of the best chess books of the `30s and `40s. This book is the first book on this remarkable man.

For 70 years the US Chess Federation has held the US Junior Open, featuring young players under 21. This book is the first to focus on the formative years of these juniors, who later became many of the outstanding masters of the Unites States. Each chapter contains an annotated game of the winner of the championship and brief identifications of the notable players.

This collection of games, most of them annotated, features the United States Chess Federation's premiere invitational tournament--the Absolute Championship. Features include statistical results of participants from 1976 through 2010, results of many opening variations as played in the Absolutes, yearly crosstables, biographical details of all winners and information on all participants, and indexes of players, opening variations and ECO codes.
