Bobby Fischer's Outrageous Chess Moves Paperback - 1985

by Bruce Pandolfini; Pandolfini


From the publisher

A collection of the most brilliant, ingenious, and outrageous chess moves ever made by legendary grandmaster Bobby Fischer--from America's foremost chess coach and game strategist for Netflix's The Queen's Gambit. Discover 101 chess moves--each one that either forced checkmate or led to an overwhelmingly superior position--from among all of Bobby Fischer's recorded games, most of which were played in tournament or match situations. This easy-to-use, interactive guide was designed by chess teacher extraordinaire and National Chess Master Bruce Pandolfini. Includes diagrams, information on setting and opponent, helpful descriptive hints, incisive analysis, and more. Now you can venture into the mind of a champion, enhanced by Pandolfini's informative presentation and enlightened by biographical details on Fischer himself.

First line

CLUE: Both sides have equal material, but Fischer's outside passed pawn, along with his more centralized King, makes all the difference.

From the rear cover

This book is an invaluable reference tool and is bound to prove a source of endless inspiration to chess aficionados of every stripe.
