Edward Lasker
    Keywords: People

Edward Lasker (1885-1981) was the author of The Game of Go (also published as Go and Go Moku), one of the earliest English-language books on go.

He was a well-known chess master who once narrowly lost a match for the U.S. chess championship.


Edward Lasker should not be confused with the world chess champion Emanuel Lasker (1868-1941), who also was a Go player (at least there is a picture of him at a board).
