Update and New Book Review: The Genius and the Misery of Chess


Hi all - just a quick update. I have been fighting off a nasty chess cold (and continuing to work throughout) going on a week and a half now. While talking has been a challenge, it has given me an opportunity to read some chess books. I have placed a new review on http://www.jrobichess.com in the review section for a book called "The Genius and the Misery of Chess" by Zhivko Kaikamjzov. The book was amazing!

I thought I knew a fair amount about the life stories of the most famous chess grandmasters, but I was in for a surprise! Check out the review section on the main site for more information and the full review.

jrobichess makes chess videos and has a chess blog along with a personal chess site at http://www.jrobichess.com.
