Crosskill Alfred. Analysis of the Chess Ending King and Queen against King and Rook

London, 1895. — 160 p.
(The author used the pseudonym "Euclid".)"This treatise had for its origin a Chess Ending which occurred some years ago in a game played between the Compiler and the Editor. The player of the White men had succeeded in making a Queen, and, after driving his opponent's King to the edge of the board, the position recorded in the accompanying diagram was reached, with Black to move. In this situation it might be thought, by many Chess players, that Black was very nearly at the end of his resources, and that White had an easy victory. In the actual game, however, these anticipations were not realised."
