arrested by the Cheka, imprisoned in Odessa and sentenced to death. Yakov Vilner, a Jewish master, saved him by sending a telegram to the chairman of the Ukrainian Council of People's Commissars, who knew of Alekhine and ordered his release. Alekhine accepted and apparently used chess analysis from Charles Jaffe in his World Championship match against Capablanca. Jaffe was a Jewish master who lived in New York City, which Alekhine often visited, and upon his return to New York after defeating Capablanca, Alekhine played a short match as a favour to Jaffe, without financial remuneration. Alekhine's second for the 1935 match with Max Euwe was the master Salo Landau, a Dutch Jew. The American Jewish grandmaster Arnold Denker wrote that he found Alekhine very friendly in chess settings, taking part in consultation games and productive analysis sessions. Denker also wrote that Alekhine treated the younger and (at that time) virtually unproven Denker to dinner on many occasions in New York during the 1930s, when the economy was very weak because of the Great Depression. Denker added that Alekhine, during the early 1930s, opined that the American Jewish grandmaster Isaac Kashdan might be his next challenger (this did not in fact take place). He gave chess lessons to 14-year-old prodigy Gerardo Budowski, a German Jew, in Paris in spring 1940. Alekhine also married an American woman who may or may not have had Jewish ancestry, Grace Wishaar, as his fourth wife. Grace Alekhine was the women's champion of Paris in 1944. Writings Alekhine wrote over twenty books on chess. Some of the best-known are: Originally published in two volumes as My Best Games of Chess 1908–1923 and My Best Games of Chess 1924–1937. Games analysis published after 1938 were edited by Edward Winter and published in 1980 in the book: Summary of results in competitions Tournament results Here are Alekhine's placings and scores in tournaments: Under score, + games won, − games lost, = games drawn Match results Here are Alekhine's results in matches: Under score, + games won, − games lost, = games drawn Chess Olympiad results Here are Alekhine's results in Chess Olympiads.

Cascais is near Estoril, where Alekhine died.
