– The Compulsive Reader

One of the most inspirational and influential chess books ever written, now in a lively new paperback edition.

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.

Re-released in paperback with a stunning new cover, this remarkable book is a true insight into one of the most gifted, troubled and controversial minds of the 20th century.
