{Edward Lasker (December 3, 1885 - March 25, 1981) was a leading
German-American chess and Go player. He was awarded the title of International
Master of chess by FIDE. Lasker was an engineer by profession, and an author.
He was friends with world champion Emanuel Lasker. Some controversy exists as
to whether they were related. Edward Lasker wrote in his memoirs of the New
York (1924) tournament "I did not discover that we were actually related until
he (Emanuel Lasker) told me shortly before his death that someone had shown
him a Lasker family tree on one of whose branches I was dangling." He
authored several books, including Chess Strategy (1913), Chess and Checkers:
the Way to Mastership (1918), Chess for Fun and Chess for Blood (1942), and
Chess Secrets I Learned from the Masters (1951).} 1. d4 e6 2. Nf3 f5 3. Nc3 Nf6
