    11/04/2008: If you are a Bobby Fischer fan and want to learn about Bobby Fischer's early years in chess then you cannot go wrong with this book. There is a nice focus on his biography with decent analysis of his games. There are many books that contain Fischer games such as MY 60 MEMORABLE GAMES (By Fischer - hard to get out of print), UNBEATABLE CHESS LESSONS (a variety of games - the finest analysis of games I have seen) and BOBBY FISHCER'S OUTRAGEOUS CHESS MOVES.

    09/24/2008: Learn about the life and games of the strongest chess player who ever lived. This book begins with Fischer's early years and takes it up to the period where he was certainly at his best. Games have some moderate analysis. There are some nice photographs and the bio is very interesting. The weakest point of the book is that the analysis of the games could have been more detailed.
