St-Petersburg 1914
Dr. Siegbert Tarrasch wrote the book of the famous tournament St Petersburg 1914: it has been translated to American English by Dr. Robert Maxham, as International Chess Tournament, Caissa Editions, Yorklyn, DE, 1993
You may find it for a reasonnable price - but not there.
Great discovery: the first translation in 1915 can be read online!
Hastings 1895
It is a great surprise to me that the Tournament book of the first Hastings tournament (won by Pillsbury in 1895), written by the players and compiled by Horace F. Cheshire, is available online.
Vienna 1882
One of the greatest tournaments of the 19th century, and of chess history, whose tournament book can be downloaded in pdf here - or read online if you create a free account (they say - I haven't tried).
A reedition can also be purchased for a very affordable price.
There will me be much more
Many second-rank masters (Vidmar, Bernstein...) made some money from writing official tournaments books that were eagerly looked for by other players as the main source of information on the evolution of the game (no database, no internet).
