description: "Horatio Caro  was an English-German chess player, of world-class Master strength for about a decade, from the late 1880s to the late 1890s, a frequent winner of significant German events. He was a regular competitor for 30 years in Master events. Caro is principally known as the co-inventor of the Caro–Kann Defence, a heretofore virtually unknown opening variation, which he analyzed, published, and played from the mid 1880s."
