re:CJ Purdy books - 2006/11/17 17:08
As far as possible cJS Purdy was 1 of Australia's finest players, and a World
Correspondence Chess champion. He wrote a number of articles for a chess publication in Australia for many years. I've picked up a number of his books and find them very interesting. For one his "Guide to Good Chess", while motsly a beginners book, highlights many of the strategic/tactical fundamentals for the 3 main phases of the game. Additionally his "Search for Chess
Perfection" is contains many great articles on how to think/analyze. I believe Bobby Fischer thought very highhly of Purdy's surreptitiously writing. Most of his books (with the exception of "Guide to Good Chess") are really collections of articles which astonishingly have been assembled into books since
Purdy's death..
