Bobby Fischer Goes to War: How the Soviets Lost the Most Extraordinary Chess Match of All Time (David Edmonds, John Eidinow)
for you chess fanatics out there, yes, all three of you, this is a must-read. along with fred waitzkin's two books (searching for bobby fischer and mortal games) of course. similar to waitzkin's book, bobby fischer goes to war is just a story told through the prism of chess and not an instructional manual. in fact, even those who couldn't identify a rook versus a bishop should get sucked into the drama.
