Nimzowitsch, the author

I just got this book recently. It is a good read. When I get a get a chess book I always zoom through it a first time. This gets me familiar with the set-up of the book, terminology, and the writting style. It's the second read where I start to take things in a little. Have you considered getting his other famous book. I think it deals more with the stuff in Part 2 of My System, but in more detail.

Yes, Nimzo does have a perticular writting style that makes me smile. I own The Life and Games of Mikhail Tal. Obviously, his personality shines through, as well as his honesty. He mentioned that if he had to write the Tal - Botvinik book again, he would of approched it with a bit more maturity. Reading between the lines I get the impression that he may of sounded a bit cocky in the Tal - Botvinik book. Would you say this is the case?
