My 120 Selected Correspondence Games
By SIM Mike Read
534 pages
This is a rarity: A book specifically on Correspondence Chess, even rarer, a games collection. This book is an insight into the playing mind of a very strong CC player from the pre-computer era, so if you like your lines triple checked for accuracy look elsewhere!
At over 500 pages long for £10 this book is great value for money. Negative points, none whatsoever! The cover is already dog tagged on my copy but that is from reading!
One very interesting game is from current welsh CC player David Guy, played in 1990!
Overall, worth a place in every Correspondence Chess Library!
Using a shiny new scoring system this book weighs in at a highly impressive 90%!
