Little Footsteps


Chess Notes site, on page 10239. with a title "Little Footsteps":

"Page 53 of the John W. Collins book mentioned in the previous item reported that one of Fischer’s favourite volumes was Sam Loyd and His Chess Problems by Alain C. White (Leeds, 1913)"

Now I admire Bobby even more, because I think it's the best book ever! (By the way, does anyone have this book and wants to sell it?)

I recommend to everyone this splendid site http://www.chesshistory.com/

Unfortunately, I havn't, also amazing, Vukcevic's book.
Nothing, I just have to steal it when I get an opportunity :)
