JOHN LITTLEWOOD (CHESS PLAYER)


'John Littlewood' (born 1931) was a very strong British chess player. Perhaps his most famous game was the one he lost against the world champion Mikhail Botvinnik at the Hastings Chess Congress 1961/2. Littlewood launched a fearsome attack which Botvinnik was able to defend only by means of a tactical finesse. Botvinnik chose to include the game in his autobiographical ''Best Games 1947-1970''.
