chess books

Think like a grandmaster by kotov, 200 open games by bronstein, 100 selected games by Botvinnik , my chess career by capablanca, the test of time by Kasparov, fire on board by shirov, my best games vol1 and 2 by Alekhine, judgement and planning in chess by euwe, chessmaster vs chess amateur by euwe, complete chess strategy by pachman, my system by nimzovich, art of attack by vukovic

All good books.

I would add:

• Pawn Power in Chess by Kmoch
• Pawn Structure Chess by Soltis
• My 60 Memorable Games by Fischer
• Tal's book on his first match against Botvinnik
• Zurich Interzonal 1953 by Bronstein

Some of my books. Capablanca’s games and books cannot fail to help you improve. The biography by Sánchez is exemplary scholarship with many important games lightly annotated. Capablanca’s own Chess Fundamentals, A Primer of Chess, and Last Lectures are among the best books ever written for teaching the most important foundational concepts and positions for the aspiring chess player. Irving Chernev wrote many useful books. Capablanca’s Chess Endings is probably his best. Highly recommended.
