Ger Vanperlo?
I'd never heard of him but apparently his Endgame Tactics written with humor won the Book of the Year award.
Must be really good.

I thnk modern authors who won "Chess Book of the Year" awards are to be seeded automaticly. Among old books, Aron Nimzovich is contender for best chess writer.

batgirl wrote a book?? vanperlos book is great, i estimate most of the tactics are worth 2000 rating.

Well , I think , Silman

MickinMD

Silman, Seirawan, Soltis, Fine, Reinfeld, Keres, Nimzowitsch, Pachman, Nunn, Watson, Dvoretsky, Alburt, Aagaard are among the contenders.

The two books that helped me most were Nimzo's My System and Silman's How to Reassess Your Chess.

silmans good , but vanperlos on a whole nother level ..
