About This Book

The Libro de los juegos, or Libro de axedrez, dados e tablas, is a 13th century Spanish treatise of chess that synthesizes the information from Arabic works on this same topic, dice and tables games, commissioned by Alfonso X of Castile, Galicia and León and completed in his scriptorium in Toledo in 1283. It contains the earliest European treatise on chess as well as being the oldest document on European tables games, and is an exemplary piece of the literary legacy of the Toledo School of Translators.
