In 1857, Lowenthal (an English Master) recommended to the First American Chess Congress that the player with the White Pieces always move first. However, this advice was not followed strictly. In 1889, Steinitz declared a similar rule, and Lasker's Manual Of Chess (1927) states "White makes the first move".
