    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

    Years after the Second World War, the Soviets dominated in international chess - Botvinnik, Smyslov, Tal, Petrosyan, and then Spassky held the world crown, it was almost an integral part of their heritage. In the West, from time to time there were flashes of brilliance - Reshevsky, Najdorf, and then Larsen, - but no one really challenged the Soviet hegemony. Then a lonely genius from Brooklyn appeared in the mid-1950s. Filled & nbsp; in chess, all his waking hours were devoted to finding the truth on 64 squares. This is an inexorable, sometimes disappointing quest, but he was persistent, and ultimately became, perhaps, the greatest natural chess talent in history. It was clear from his early childhood as a gifted prodigy during his stormy ascent to Chess Olympus, no one ever shook the chess world like Bobby Fisher. His rude genius in the royal game, combined with his tireless will to win, made him one of the most fearsome chess players of all time - a true living legend. Now, each of its 736 tournament and match games is presented with deep explanations and analysis.
