Keverel Books

Post by Jon D'Souza-Eva » Sat Jun 15, 2024 10:28 am

I found a book I was after on a list on Bob Jones' Keverel Books site. Unfortunately it seems that he has closed down his business:
https://www.keverelchess.com/

I wish him all the best in his well-earned retirement.

Does anyone happen to know what happened to the existing stock?

Thanks John. I don't want to sound mysterious for the sake of but I also don't want to give the title of the book! It wasn't one I had to have so I'll just do without.

Might be worth searching on Tony Peteron's chess books site or Glynn's books. Latter is searched via biblio.co.uk. Both equally helpful with fine service.

Unfortunately Bob's email address associated with Keverel has been hacked, I received an obvious scam message, some years after last emailing. ([email protected]). Nothing helpful on sky.com site, forwarded to [email protected]
