Pre-order, expected in September 2025. The price is only indicative, we will charge the price for which we will have the book on offer. While the first volume covered Spassky's work up to 1968, this second and final volume covers Spassky's career from 1969, when he became world champion, to his last recorded game, played in 2009. It contains biographical information and an estimated nearly 100 deeply annotated, chronologically arranged games of Spassky, with indexes at the end. Boris Spassky, 1937-2025, was one of the most popular chess players in history, a player with a very universal style; he defeated Tigran Petrosian in 1969 and became the tenth world champion, a title he lost in 1972 when he was defeated by Bobby Fischer in a famous match. IM Tibor Karolyi was Hungarian Champion, works as a coach and is also recognized as an author. His biographical books on Kasparov, Karpov, Korchny, Petrosian or Tal have been very successful.
