I need help!!!!!

[John Henry]

We will be traveling to Europe and my problem is what chess book to bring-it must be thin not big and bulky,I love and teach- 25 years-love the EG,studies,instructive games-I have a few contenders but I need more,I need a good one- thanks…..

[Don Parakin]

Get a Kindle. It'll hold 10s or 100s of books and is only 1/3" thin.

[Marc Andre Beaudry]

And on kindle the everyman books are $10 and the new in chess books are around $15 and $20.

[Hans Jung]

Yes kindle is definitely your answer for travel.

[John Henry]

Thx guys,but I prefer reading physical books…

[Aris Marghetis]

I heartily agree John! At my age, Kindles make me feel like an allergy coming on lol

[Hans Jung]

I also prefer physical books but when travelling how else can you carry unlimited books in such a short space? As for book preferences you had better choose one that you get a lot of enjoyable time from. I dont know what your preferences are regarding chess but for hours and hours of pleasure I would suggest Trotsky's puzzles. Or for a relaxing read and a historical crime thriller I would suggest Ronan Bennett's Zugzwang or some of the other books I have recommended on chesstalk.

I like Trotsky’s puzzle book- a consideration- 1-2 thin books on instructive chess- endgames-,lessons,are under consideration,I have time to choose,I always travel light- carry on,meeting up with dear wife in French Riveria…..

Lev Davidovich Bronstein ?
Did he write a puzzle book ??

[Egidijus Zeromskis]

I like Trotsky’s puzzle book- a consideration- 1-2 thin books on instructive chess- endgames-,lessons,are under consideration,.

If you have never read before - Tal about his match against Botvinnik. Thin and great book.

Canadian flavor - The chess attacker's handbook by Song and Preotu. Though, quite dense with examples, you'll need a chessboard :)

[Ken Craft]

Canadian flavour: Lev Bronstein was interned in Canada, April 1917. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amherst_Internment_Camp

Thanks for that, Ken. I learned something new.

Lev Davidovich Bronstein was the original birth name of Leon Trotsky, Bolshevik revolutionary cohort of Lenin and Stalin. This is NOT the same person as the endgame composer Troitsky.
