More stories from My Great Predecessors
New biography material on Fine, Gligorić, Portisch, Timman, Zaitsev, and other players from Kasparov’s five-volume history.
The player biographies now include Fine learning German to read chess classics, Gligorić’s influence on Kasparov, and Timman’s eight-game winning run at Mar del Plata.
Further additions follow the work behind championship matches, including Geller’s analysis and Zaitsev preparing handwritten notes for Karpov at Merano. Each story names its book source.
