Find the mate in eight!!!
That’s an analasys board, not a puzzle

This directmate was composed by William Anthony Shinkman and published in St. Louis Globe-Democrat 1887. The original study is cooked, see this for more information.
Interestingly, there's a version, although Chess960, which avoids this cook by Bader Al-Hajiri.
