BOBBY FISCHER REVISITED!!

The late Bobby Fischer had a very great influenced on me as 2 out of 3 of my earliest chess books (I had bought and read passionately) were My 60 Memorable Games and Bobby Fischer's 101 Outrageous moves. (The other one is My Chess Career - J.R.Capablanca). I had learned that Fischer's approach is rather crude and straightforward, yet contains a lot of beauties.

I have in my stock 2 of the most recent books about Fischer

1. Bobby Fischer Rediscovered- by Andrew Soltis. This excellence work to relook into Fischer's 100 games and yet the author found that there are many beauties

2. Bobby Fischer From Genius To Legend - Gufeld. This book not only speaks about Fischers games but contains some stories and nice pictures too

My price:
Bobby Fischer Rediscovered- by Andrew Soltis : RM 90.00
NOTE: SOLD TO WAN ISMAIL WAN YUSOFF OF KELANTAN ON THE 4TH APRIL 2009









Bobby Fischer From Genius To Legend - Gufeld : RM 70.00

Note: Sold to Kaushal Khandar











I think those were a very reasonable price, considering that I had sold My 60 Memorable Games by Bobby Fischer at RM 150.00!! to a China's IM during last KL open. The reason was so simple.. it is a classic and out of print book in the whole world.











However, for those who still wish to have Fischer's original work, I still have another copy in my stock. But I have to put it a litlle bit higher, that is RM 200.00!!


(Note: Sold to Kaushal Khandar)








Considering that, it is very hard to get it nowadays (If you do get it, I strongly expect it will be higher than RM200)
