![]() No n'hi ha cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. This is a collection of Evans' columns from the early 2000s... they try to hype it as some sort of tell-all book, but is just a slapdash collection of his later writing...there are few older columns that are reprinted from the 50s and 60s... one about some American players touring Russia during Kruschev's era was pretty interesting... look, anything about chess history will likely get at least 3 stars from me, but that's about it in this case.
