The best autobiography of a chess grandmaster that I've read. But this is probably because I've read only two: this one and that by Victor "The Terrible" Korchnoi (Korchnoi is a terrible writer, and Garry Kasparov is probably the same. But this most likely was written entirely by Donald Trelford although I am sure the ideas and reminiscences here were all Kasparov's).
This autobiography ends after Kasparov's fourth championship match with his arch rival, Anatoly Karpov. It talked mainly about their rivalry, their games, his fights with the Soviet Chess Federation (which favored Karpov) and the person he acknowledged he could not beat in gamesmanship: the Filipino Florencio Campomanes, former President of FIDE (the world chess governing body).
A hugely entertaining read for chess players but most likely a boring one for those who do not understand the game at all.

Een spannend verhaal waaring Garry zijn rise to the top omschrijft. Zeer mooi gedetailleerde passages en leuke anekdotes maken het een mooi verhaal. Het boek gaat echter soms te lang door op sommige passages. Hierdoor komt Kasparov klagerig over.

Книга интересная, читается легко и позволяет понять что за человек Гарри Каспаров, что для него ценно. Большая часть книги посвящена противостоянию Карпову.

A strong-willed and diligent person.
