Kampfschach mit Hikaru Nakamura: Seine besten Spiele von Karsten Müller (englisch)

Fighting Chess with Hikaru Nakamura

by Karsten Muller, Raymund Stolze

This is the very first book to focus exclusively on Hikaru Nakamura, the greatest American chess player since the legendary Robert James Fischer. The book features a prologue penned by Lubomir Kavalek, who was none other than "Bobby's" insider and supporter at the "match of the century" against Boris Spasski in 1972.

In this book, grandmaster Karsten Müller from Hamburg and chess journalist Raymund Stolze from Berlin document the 24-year-old's fascinating journey to the top of world chess. Interestingly, Hikaru was not a typical child prodigy, and at his first Junior World Championships didn't even make it onto the winners' podium. Although he won a World Cup medal aged just 13, today he creates true miracles.

Review

"Very instructive." --Chess.com
"A large, readable, and entertaining work that comes loaded with anecdotes, insights, and career highlights that will put the reader inside the heart of the action. Exciting games are accented with great notes. The book itself is beautifully bound in a durable cover, with large, readable type in an attractive font, with generous diagrams that make following the action easy. Fighting Chess succeeds as a biographical sketch, as a games collection, and as a record of comparative achievements in American chess." -- Chess Cafe.com
