Product Description

In this authoritative reissue of one of the most important chess books ever written, the great Bobby Fischer takes the reader move by move through 60 of his most instructive and entertaining games, including the astounding “Game of the Century,” played when he was only 15 years old! The controversial alterations that were made to Bobby Fischer’s words in the last edition have been omitted in this version, so only the author’s own words are expressed, giving a true insight into one of the most gifted, troubled, and controversial minds of the 20th century.

Customer Reviews

I've been waiting many years for this book!5
This book was previously out of print and very difficult to find for many years. The annotations are by Fischer himself and are deeply instructive and entertaining. I play through the games, covering the moves with a card, and try to guess Fischer's next move. If you do this, all phases of your game will improve - the opening, the middlegame, and the endgame. This book is easily one of the best chess books ever printed. If you are serious about chess, you simply must own this classic.

Bobby's classic is back5
Until this 2009 Batsford edition, MY 60 MEMORABLE GAMES was the most important chess book of all time that wasn't faithfully reprinted in algebraic notation. Get it for your chess library, even though you've played over every game already!

Quality Book, faithfully reproduced.5
I was very happy with the quality of this book. Very impressive. This edition faithfully reproduces the original except for the algabraric notation. This is my first "games collection" book but I certainly feel it was worth the money and I enjoy going over the games and the commentary.
