Description

State Enterprise "Central Collector of Scientific Libraries", Moscow, 2000, in Russian language, volume 2, hardback, 320 pp, 480 grams, condition:very good. 78 annotated games, many nice photos.

Spassky's chess career from 1969 το 1995. Extensive presentation of the match with Fischer and what happened behind the scenes, in the summer of 1972, in Reykjavik. 

"In 1992, Bobby Fischer, after a twenty-year hiatus from chess, re-emerged to arrange a "Revenge Match of the 20th century" against Spassky in Montenegro and Belgrade; this was a rematch of the 1972 World Championship. At the time, Spassky was rated 106th in the FIDE rankings, and Fischer did not appear on the list at all, owing to his inactivity. Spassky lost the match with a score of +5−10=15. However, Spassky earned $1.65 million for losing the match.

Spassky then played the 16 year old prodigy Judit Polgár in a 1993 match in Budapest, losing narrowly by 4½–5½.

Spassky continued to play occasional events through much of the 1990s, such as the Veterans vs Women match in Prague, 1995."
