5.0 out of 5 stars expert notes by an american legend, 17 Jul 2002
By A Customer
grandmaster larry evans helped bobby fischer to write his 60 memorable games. evans is also probably the most widely read of any chess journalist since his syndicated column goes to 50 us newspapers and he writes regularly in the us chess federation magazine chess life where his articles are consistently voted the most popular!

here evans takes some brilliant games and annotates them in the modern algebraic notation, his notes are expert well written and avoid the telephone directory style that ruins so much modern chess literature. the games are also very well chosen for combativity content thrills and spills.

5.0 out of 5 stars Synopsis, 6 Jul 2007
In this selection of some of the most beautiful and effective chess clashes of the last half century, the emphasis is on tactical acuity. Study of this book will guarantee both enjoyment and improvement.
Grandmaster Larry Evans is a renowned chess writer and columnist, celebrated for his trenchant contributions to the US Chess Federation Magazine Chess Life and for his weekly column which appears in no less than fifty separate papers throughout the USA. Several times US champion, analyst for Bobby Fischer and senior commentator for the 2000 World Chess Championship between Kasparov and Kramnik, Larry Evans is one of the undisputed greats of 20th century chess.
