One book I enjoyed is Chess Secrets by Emmanuel Lasker.  It is a memoir of sorts in which he talks about many of the great players of his time while also giving demo games.

You might like Bobby Fischer vs the World by Brad Darrach; a bit in the gonzo-journalist style, but it has it's moments.  And if you don't mind a shameless plug, my story on the Morphy-Lowenthal meeting is on my homepage here at chess.com.
