I'd like to quote Alan O'Brien's posting from Bulletin Board at
www.chesscafe.com: "The book (My Great Predecessors) also has one
major advantage over my Faber paperback of Fischer's My 60 Memorable
Games: it folds flat"
Great, Mr.O'Brien! You've hit the nail on the head!And most likely,
folding flat is Kasparov's book only advantage!

A most valuable observation.
Compliments for your solid analysis of the value of Kasparov's book.

Looking forward to your next review,

I was only making a little joke - the two books are completely different.
And anyone who bought the same Faber edition that I did - in Britain - will
back me up:
the Faber paperback will not stay open; you have to keep it open with your
hand. It's very annoying!
As far as I can remember that is the only chess book Faber ever published.

Faber published at least 7 other chess titles, several by Fred
Reinfeld and several by Irving Chernev. I know this because these 7
are listed on the backside of my copy of My 60 Memorable Games! It is
remarkable that you've never seen this, especially since - unlike my
copy - yours won't stay open!!

Tobi, I`m in a possession of a Russian copy of the Fischer`s book. It
doesn`t fold flat ;-)
FYI the copyright of the book wasn`t granted to Russians by Fischer.
Nonetheless they violated his author`s rights. And what`s most peculiar :
the translator of the book was Mr. Khariton whose elaborates are oftentimes
cited here by "Aryeh Davidov" surely next incarnation of "Goran Tomic" ;-)
