Isidor Gunsberg
Isidor Arthur Gunsberg (1 November 1854〔Correct birth date is 1 november 1854. See: (Hungary, Birth Records collected by Rabbis in Various Counties, 1791-1914 ) and (Tim Harding: Eminent Victorian Chess Players: Ten Biographies, 278–314.o. McFarland, 2012. )〕 – 2 May 1930) was a chess player, best known for narrowly losing the 1891 World Chess Championship match to Wilhelm Steinitz.
==Biography==
Gunsberg began his career as the player operating the remote-controlled chess automaton Mephisto, but later became a chess professional. He moved to Great Britain in 1876, later becoming a naturalized British citizen on 12 May 1908.〔() "Isidor Gunsberg", Chess Notes, Edward Winter〕
In the late 1880s and early 1890s Gunsberg was one of the top players in the world. He decisively won a national tournament in London in July 1885, and a few weeks later won the 4th German Chess Congress in Hamburg. In match play, he defeated Joseph Blackburne and Henry Bird in 1886. In 1887, he shared first with Amos Burn in the London tournament. In 1890 he drew a match with Mikhail Chigorin, a former and future challenger for the world chess championship. Later that year, Gunsberg himself challenged Wilhelm Steinitz for the world title. The match took place in New York City and Gunsberg lost with four wins, six losses, and nine draws.
In 1916 he sued the ''Evening News'' for libel when they said that his chess column contained "blunders". He won the suit after the British High Court accepted a submission that in chess matters, eight oversights did not make a "blunder".〔(Edward Winter's Chess Notes )〕
