Robert James Fischer is one of the greatest and most celebrated players in chess history. Fifty years since the American won the right to challenge Boris Spassky for the World Championship crown, Tibor Karolyi documents Fischer’s unique journey from precocious youngster to the chess icon who obliterated Taimanov and Larsen before convincingly beating Petrosian on The Road to Reykjavik.
The second volume, Fischer – Spassky 1972, is devoted to the Reykjavik match which captivated the entire world.
"Like all Quality Chess books, The Road to Reykjavik is a first-rate production in every sense of the word. Printed on high quality paper and neatly laid out, it features player, opening and name indexes. It also has excellent proof reading and fact checking, additional areas where Quality Chess shines compared to other publishers.
The Road to Reykjavik is must-reading for all Fischer fans, especially now as the 50th anniversary of the 1972 World Championship is drawing near." -- IM John Donaldson
