Title: A must have for chess hobbyists and connoisseurs
Review: Out of the 20+ chess titles in my library, My Chess Career, by Capablanca, remains my favorite.The first hand explanations from the eventual world champion are useful, but sometimes abrupt. Nonetheless, the value of any of his commentary, in combination with games showing his historical development and clean elegant playing style, is simply a joy to read.This book is more historical in intent than educational, yet my playing improved more through reading this chess book than any other, including those intended as educational.Not meant for the beginner, yet, not much skill is required to enjoy it. A great read.
