My Best Games - 1924-1937

This book presents the best games from the period between 1924 and 1937 of the fourth world champion, Alexander Alekhine, selected and analyzed by himself. The games form a collection of extraordinary richness, demonstrating the refinement, originality, and depth of Alekhine's analysis. We can observe in detail his clear and aggressive style in the best moments of his career, including the anthological match against Capablanca in Buenos Aires in 1927, when he won the world title.
"Typical of Alekhine were his deep plans, distant calculations, and unlimited imagination. His greatest weapon was his combinatorial vision, calculating variants with great ease and precision. Alekhine's combinations possessed an astonishing and demolishing force." - Mikhail BotvinnikIt contains a 65-page appendix with biographical notes on Alekhine's opponents in this book.
