When some years ago I sent my chess friends in Russia, very competent
chess players and journalists, Kingston's article on Botvinnik and
Keres, they were amazed that I was reading such a "historian". To begin

character assassin. Even a mud-slinger.I was trying to defend him, but
all in vain... Lev Khariton
