Learn from the Legends 2 - Chess Heroes at their Best by Mihail Marin (miękka okładka)

Wersja językowa - angielska. Miękka okładka. 392 strony.

When Learn from the Legends was published in 2004, the book became an instant classic and Mihail Marin became known as one of the world’s finest chess authors. In this new book, the Romanian GM shines the spotlight on five more all-time-great players: Leonid Stein, Lev Polugaevsky, David Bronstein, Paul Keres and Lajos Portisch. Much like the first book, the ambitious student can learn a great deal from studying the legends of yesteryear, aided by the author’s expert insights, while more casual readers will enjoy the biographical and best-games compilation of five wonderful chess players.

Mihail Marin became a grandmaster in 1993 and has represented Romania in ten Chess Olympiads. He has long been known as one of the world’s most insightful chess annotators and authors.

Reviews

Sean Marsh (CHESS magazine)
“Readers can expect to enjoy a feast of attacking chess games backed up by often unusual ideas. This book will doubtlessly do well, and it deserves to. It is a timely reminder to the online generation that we still have much to learn from the games of the great chess legends.”

GM Matthew Sadler (New In Chess magazine)
“One day I will give Marin fewer than five stars, but today is not that day! A really lovely book, that I read at a joyously furious pace!”
