My friend suggested:

"Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess" is a great book for youngsters, but hard to
find these days, also the book by the Polgars titled simple "Chess" which
contains thousands of puzzles for beginner players.

There are only three great books about chess, written in the previous
century. They are:

*The Art of Attack in Chess*, by Vladimir Vokovic.
*My System, *by Aron Nimzovisch.
*My 60 Favorite Games*, by Bobby Fischer.

If you can make it through these, you will be ranked at least 2300, one
step short of Master. You have to win a few tournaments to make it it 2400,
but if you make it through these three books you're well on your way.

Another interesting game is backkammon. I have played against all the
important people in that world, and mostly lost, but have at least shared a
table within them.I have played in about five world championships, and won
none, but I know all the principles and studied all their math. And
although I haven't visiited a tournament lately, I still think that I have
a pretty good game.
