Mikhail Tal was simply a chess phenomenon. The 'magician from Riga'
stunned the chess world when he became the youngest ever World
Champion (at that time) in 1960, and he won countless supporters
for his scintillating tactical play and his infectious enthusiasm
for the game. Tal's dazzling tactical style would often leave his
hapless opponents in a state of shell shock. As former World
Champion Vassily Smyslov once noted, 'Tal's appearance in chess had
the effect of an exploding bomb, since his style of play was
distinguished by extraordinary combinative brilliance.'
In this book Alexander Raetsky and Maxim Chetverik revisit Tal's
brilliant victories. The authors have carefully picked his most
famous and instructive games and combinations, ones which set the
chess world alight with admiration. A study of this tactical genius
is sure to entertain and benefit the aspiring chess student.
Includes Tal's most brilliant sacrificial attacks
Ideal for the attacking-minded chess player
