As an old fogey, I lean to old books. I like Reuben Fine's "The Ideas behind the Chess Openings" and "Chess the Easy Way" (if there is such a thing!). I also like Aron Nimzowitsch's "Chess Praxis" and "My System"; both of these are available in 21st Century Editions (translations from descriptive notation to algebraic notation).

Forget the books. just study your end game, and puzzle's {traps, pitfalls, and swindles). let the game come to you. it's better that way. there is only one variation that matters and that the next right move.

The Complete Idiots Guide to Chess by Patrick Wolff. Don't let the title fool you. I am serious. Recommended by noted coach Dan Heisman.
And of course Modern Chess Openings by Walter Korn.

The OP is less than 1000 for several years and needs a good book covering fundamentals.
For that the How to Reassess Your Chess and The Complete Idiots Guide to Chess are two of their best bets I would wager.
Well yeah every book is grand.

How to reassess your chess by Jeremy Silman and My Great Predecessors by Gary Kasparov.
''The art of checkmate'' will change your life.
Judged as a book that actually tries to teach something, it's the best chess book I've ever seen. Also the best judged by how much fun it makes chess after reading.
