Format:Paperback
This was the book that made me fall in love with chess back 40 years ago! The analysis is so clear and at the same time so deep, that it is equally useful to the beginner and the experienced player!

Format:Paperback
Alekhine is my favorite chess player. In his games each move he made was in concert with the last. He was very good at executing a sacrifice of material to gain a better position, then forcing his opponent to return the material while they are in an unpleasant position and next forcing their resignation with a knock out combination! There are many examples of this in his book. He was very well versed in all phases of the game and gave very deep analysis in this book that flaunt these skills. This is a must have for all!
Format:Paperback
This is a must-have book, but be aware that it uses the "old" English Descriptive Notation (see [...]), which might take some time to get used to if you've trained with the more modern Algebraic Notation (e.g. 1. e4).
