OK, thanks! Not sure if I can find all of them though...

Start with the 3 books of Pachman  "Complete Chess strategy" and a couple of good endgame books("Practical chess Endings" by Keres should be one of them).

You don't need a lot of books for now.You only need good ones.

Once you study these first 4 or 5 seriously , your undrstanding will improve and you will know what you need. Knowledge  has to do mainly  with quality , not quantity.More than 4 or 5 books will confuse you than educate you.But be sure they are GOOD ones.

start with 

The Middlegame 1 (Static Features) - Euwe & Kramer

The Middlegame 2 (Dynamic & Subjective Features) - Euwe & Kramer

The Middlegame in Chess - Eugene Znosko-Borovsky

I also REALLY like a newer book called chess strategy for tournament players by Gooten. One of the best i have read in a long time

Silman's book is also great too but gooten i think is more comprehensive silman newer edition and this book are a good combo

The title is missing a word:

STINKS!

@ChristianSoldier007, Who played black in that game?  He payed terrible.

That makes sense.

What do you mean?

What I meant was it made sense being a composed game than someone playing that game.

Sorry about the confusion.

Changing that...

Thank you.

I don't agree with that.  We see far too many people here who simply ignore all the work that has gone before them in a (misguided) effort to be "creative."

This is unprecedented!

Or show him all the busts that his opponents missed (heehee!).
