lol should be The test of Time

I've looked at logical chess and Winning Pawn structures.

 

Logical chess is good, though I still need to get through it, a lot of what I've read so far was quite basic. Even though it's aimed at higher rated players I feel I got a lot more out of John Nunn's Understanding chess move by move mostly because I felt that a lot of what's in logical chess seemed quite dated. Understanding chess is the same book but written more recently and still has lots of things you can take from it, the games are more complex however.

 

Winning Pawn structures is meh, I've found it quite hard to find a book on pawn structure I liked though.

Thanks, I believe for me it would be best to read first Logical chess and then after some time more experience and knowledge to read Understanding chess. As well that is a good opportunity to compare old school and new; Pawn structure I will have to go through as that is one of my weak spots; Somebody mentioned me that I can learn a lot about pawn structure in Reuben/ The idea behind chess openings;
