Can anyone give me, in their opinion, the best book compilation of annotated games by one player? (I think it'd probably be best to study one person at a time, rather than try and understand the styles of multiple players)

Chessgames.com is great for a free online resource, mostly because their posters plagiarize the hell out of any book in the kibitzing sections of a given game.

 

The Life and Games of Mikhail Tal has gotten the best reviews, and is one I hope to pick up soon.
