This volume presents the lost manuscript of Reverend Lewis Rou’s 'Critical Remarks Upon The Letter To The Craftsman On The Game Of Chess,' written in 1734. Dedicated to William Cosby, Governor of New York, the manuscript offers a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual and social milieu of the 18th century. Willard Fiske’s work brings to light a previously unknown contribution to the literature surrounding chess, intertwining it with literary criticism and historical context. The text provides valuable insights into the cultural significance of chess during this period and sheds light on the correspondence between intellectual figures. Scholars and enthusiasts alike will find this a compelling addition to the history of chess and 18th-century studies.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
