Guess the author

Take a look at the following excerpts from chess books, and guess who the author is:

[Answers:#1 is Capablanca, #2 is Yermolinsky, #3 is Mikhail Tal]

#1 

#2

#3

Three is indeed Tal. But number two is not Fischer, and the author is alive and well.

Yeah, crazy's made some good puzzles over time, glad to see he's back at it :)

Got no idea about this, though

2. Nunn?

1. Seems a bit Tarrasch like.

Good attempts, but no... Number one timeframe should help...

#2 seems to be in the style of GM Neil McDonald (ENG).

Nope...

#2 is it Chernev?

Chernev is a good guess.

#1 Capablanca?

#1 imma go with capablanca as well

my second guess may be alekhine, though i dont think its as likely

#1 is Capablanca. One left.

you eleted pictures by accident, or is it just my com?

Hurrah!

I deduced it thusly:

1. Contemporary of Rubinstein

2. Strong enough to beat nearly everyone, as a whipper-snapper

3. Gambling involved

Now, where's my cigar?

Fixed the pics. #2 was born in the Soviet Union, but lives in the United States.

alex yermolinsky or alex onischuk?

One of them.

yermolinsky, because i know hes written books

Done! All three solved.

The first one is Capablanca, apparently commenting on events at his first international tnmt in San Sebastian 1911

Who wrote the other two?
