Chess Player I have a question

[JSU*Toi]

Are there any REALLY GOOD chess player on here... if so I have a question...


Is there a move called the Double Excelsior?a "challenge for the sophisticated designer only," "a helpmate" in which black moves first and "the two sides cooperate to checkmate black.

I am reading The Emperor of Ocean Park and this move it described in the book but I can't find anything on it on the web???
