brigadecommander 31-Jan-17, 12:06	iron yes i can recommend a good biography. Buy his ''my best games of chess''. You can get it used very cheap. In it is a very good biography. He is my all time favorite player.In fact i consider him the greatest chess player ever to walk the Earth. (imho).www.amazon.com. There used to be a very good bio on a video but it disappeared off the Internet.
ironbutterfly 31-Jan-17, 12:13	bc Thanks, bc. I have two editions of MBGOC: the one I'm currently studying (on your suggestion some time ago, actually  , edited by Taylor Kingston in 2013, and an earlier one edited by Nunn in 1996. Is this the bio you are referring to?
brigadecommander 31-Jan-17, 12:24	if these books you mention have the extensive Bio that is inserted in Alekhines original book then yes. Alekhine wrote MBGOC. It is in old descriptive notation (P-K4 N-B3 etc).
ironbutterfly 31-Jan-17, 13:06	guess not Both my editions are in algebraic; lots of excellent and extensive analysis, but no bio. I'll have to look around. Thanks again.
