Default Best Ever Chess Games (Soltis list?)

"Gregory Topov" wrote in message
.. .
I'm trying to obtain a ranked list (I don't need all the annotations - I
would buy the book for that) of the 100 games selected by Andrew Soltis
in his book "100 Best Chess Games of the 20th Century."
While a PGN file of the games would be absolutely fantastic, I'd be happy
with just any lead to help me find a list of the actual games he selected.

My intention is to compare Soltis' list with the:
64 Greatest Games in "Even More Complete Chess Addict"
100 Greatest Games in "The Mammoth Book of the World's Greatest Chess
Games" (Nunn, Emms & Burgess)


Here's both lists of those other two titles in an easier to read format.
