Josef Kling

[2] He co-edited the problem book Chess Studies (1851) with Bernhard Horwitz.

[5] As co-authors, they made notable contributions to endgame theory, and are thought to have originated the term "cook" in reference to "an unsound chess problem having two solutions.

"[6] Kling began as a teacher of instrumental music, but in the early 1850s found himself with few students.

[7] He emigrated from Mainz,[8] Germany, to England, where in 1852 he opened a coffee house with chess rooms, located at 454 New Oxford Street in London.

[10] From 1859 to 1862, Kling revived the Chess Player's Chronicle with Adolf Zytogorski and Ignatz Kolisch, which had been discontinued by Robert Barnett Brien in 1856.
