Descriere

‘Still seen as the classic games collection’– English Chess Federation'It is a work of genius'– The Compulsive ReaderA beautiful gift edition of one of the most inspirational and influential chess books ever written.First published in 1969, My 60 Memorable Games offers a rare window into the mind of chess icon Bobby Fischer. It contains Fischer's objective, honest and self-critical annotations to games he had won, drawn and even lost in the period from 1957 to 1967 - but from which he also learned valuable lessons.Reading Fischer's intensely personal commentaries is like going back in time and watching live coverage of his over-the-board battles with the leading players of the day. Soon he would become the greatest of them all.Released in a luxurious new edition for collectors, with foiled cloth binding and an eight-page plate section, this remarkable book is a true insight into one of the most gifted, troubled and controversial minds of the 20th century.
