My Great Predecessors - Volume 4
This book brings together the two greatest names in the history of chess. The author, Garry Kasparov, the greatest chess player of all time, presents the life and games of Robert James Fischer, the 11th World Champion, the lone genius who in the 1960s and 1970s faced the might of the Soviet School of Chess and managed to defeat it. Bobby Fischer accumulated successes on a scale never seen before. His astonishing results, such as the sequence of 19 consecutive victories, are unparalleled in the history of chess. With the help of powerful computers, Kasparov reveals details hitherto unnoticed in Bobby Fischer's games, showing for the first time unknown nuances of the genius of the phenomenal American. In this book, Garry Kasparov also thoroughly analyzes three other Western players from Fischer's era - Samuel Reshevsky, the Argentine Miguel Najdorf and Bent Larsen.
