Synopsis
When Mikhail Botvinnik lost the world championship in 1960 to the dazzling attacking player from Riga, Mikhail Tal, there seemed little chance of him regaining his title. Yet in the Return Match a year later, with a surprising demonstration of aggressive chess, Botvinnik completely outplayed his young opponent and ran out the easy winner. All 21 games of the match are deeply annotated.

    The seller offered a hard-to-find chess book in "like new" condition at an excellent price. He also allowed me to combine the purchase of two books with only one shipping charge. The book arrived several days ahead of schedule, well-packaged and in the condition described. This is a professional bookseller from whom I look forward to purchasing more books from his outstanding chess book collection in the near future!
