	Max Euwe the Biography
		To many people, Euwe was not a “real world champion.” His day job was teaching mathematics in a girl’s secondary school and he essentially won the World’s Championship in his “spare time.” Since he was not a full-time professional chessplayer and held the title only briefly, his achievements and reputation have suffered.
		Euwe’s personal efforts led to the acceptance of his proposals for putting the championship title under the purview of FIDE, a system that remained intact for a number of decades.
		Euwe kept his distance from the game, returning to his teaching, though he did score a tie with Alekhine and Reschevsky for fourth place in the 1938 AVRO tournament where he won his first victory over Capablanca.

		In fact, Euwe was quite in demand as a match opponent in those days, as he played several matches, and always seemed to lose or draw.
		If Alekhine picked him as another safe opponent, his plans went awry, since owing to a combination of overconfidence on Alekhine's part, and the fact that by 1935, Max Euwe was a good deal stronger a player than anyone realized, Euwe actually won the match.

		Euwe shows how the possessor of the majority should station their pieces so as to support an eventual passed pawn and then, when the time is right, create one.
		Euwe also does not overburden us with variations: he includes them if they are important to understanding the main play, or if they help illustrate the subject of the current chapter.
