Henry (Harry) Nelson Pillsbury is one of the strongest players to have never received the title of "World Champion". Captivating with his extraordinary memory and blind multi-table displays, he soon became one of the strongest players of his era, although he started chess at a relatively late age.
Pillsbury, whose entire career lasted a total of eleven years, is, according to many commentators, the 3rd strongest ever.
He was an American player who would have dethroned legendary World Champion Dr. Emanuel Lasker before Jose Raul Capablanca if his teenage health problems had not led to his death at the age of thirty-three (following Paul Morphy and Robert James Fischer).
