♡ 43 ( +1 | -1 ) New BookI just picked up "Pal Benko: My Life, Games and Compositions" by GM Pal Benko and IM Jeremy Silman. You learn about Benko's life while playing thru 138 annotated games covering 400 pages, There's a opening Survey by IM John watson covering about 100 pages and a 100 pages with 300 of Benko's problems and compositions. The book contains many photo's and stories I've never seen before, it's a wonderful book.
