One of the greatest artists ever to sit down at a chessboard, Rubinstein was also the strongest player never to get a shot at the title of World Champion. The Life & Games of Akiva Rubinstein, Volume 1: Uncrowned King focuses on the years 1882-1920, covering Rubinsteins rise from a modest upbringing to his emergence as Emanuel Laskers chief challenger in the last years leading up to World War I.
