Think about this: Bobby Fischer wrote a book in 1959. Published by
Simon and Schuster it is completely forgotten today. I cannot even
find a reference to it anywhere, not even as a used book. Do you know
where I can find it?
It's called "Bobby Fischer's Games of Chess", a small book, 97 pages.
Fischer's introduction is dated August, 1958. The book, dedicated to
Carmine Nigro, consists of a biographical intro, Fischer's games,
lightly annotated, from the U.S. Championship, played 12/17/57 through
1/8/58, plus his games, unannotated, from the Portoroz 1958
Interzonal. Fischer acknowledges help from John W. Collins "in the
preparation of the manuscript".
