The Chess Alchemist by Mikhail Tal

Descripción

The Chess Alchemist Mikhail Tal is one of the most celebrated World Champions in chess history,

who confounded his opponents and dazzled chess fans around the world. Seemingly breaking every rule

in the book, yet also breaking records with his accomplishments, Tal truly was The Chess Alchemist.

In this unique book, Oleg Stetsko has compiled 80 of Tal’s most interesting games, as annotated by the

Magician himself in a variety of sources, many of which have been translated into English for the very

first time here.

 Mikhail Tal became World Champion in 1960 by defeating the great Mikhail Botvinnik. Tal’s play is

famed for its sacrificial brilliance, and he is also renowned as a witty and lively writer.
