My 60 Memorable Games [Sixty]

384 pp. Sixty games selected and fully annotated by the 11th World Chess Champion, with introductions to the games by International Grandmaster Larry Evans. Bobby Fischer (March 9, 1943 - January 17, 2008) is regarded as the greatest chess player the world has ever known. He won the US Open Championship at age 13, the US Championship at age 14, became a grandmaster and a candidate for the World Chess Championship at age 15, and defeated Boris Spassky in an epic battle for the World Chess Championship in Reykjavik, Iceland in 1972. In this book, he describes and fully annotates his battles on the way to the top. This book is widely regarded as one of the best chess books ever written, along with Aron Nimzowitsch's My System and Jeremy Silman's How to Reassess Your Chess.
