Er, what`s the deal with this book?
I learned a new thing from it... Kasparov is from Armenia (?!).

-snipped-


Chapter 19: The Ten Best Chess Players of All Time has this gaff of
Kasparov, Gary (1963 -), Armenia

That is one of many mistakes found in Eade's book - a book, by the way, of
which his buddy, former USCF treasurer Tom Dorsch said:
"Jim Eade has written the best single-volume introduction to chess in the
English language."
That view is definitely not shared by a majority of the chess players and chess
writers I know.
