Publisher's Synopsis

The 1962 Candidates Tournament in Curaçao was one of the fiercest chess battles of all time. At the height of the Cold War, eight players contested the right to challenge World Champion Mikhail Botvinnik. Jan Timman describes the course of the tournament and annotates the most important games (including 16 of Fischers!) in his usual lucid and instructive style. Shortlisted for the British Chess Federation 2005 Book of the Year Award.
