RESEED BY REQUEST. Review "an excellent read ...buy this book!" -- John Elburg June 6, 2001 "rich and textured ...a work of brilliance, one deserving far greater readership among chessplayers" John S. Hilbert -- Chess Cafe, May 30, 2001 --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition. Product Description As a respected trainer who became a world-class chess grandmaster after leaving Leningrad and moving to Holland in 1972, Genna Sosonko observes the golden age Soviet chess from a privileged dual perspective. Combining an insider's nostalgia with the detachment of a critical observer, he has produced unforgettable portraits of the heroes of this bygone era: Tal, Botvinnik, Geller, Polugaevsky, and the legendary trainer Zak are some of his subjects. This New Editon has two brand new stories. Delightful --The Washington Post http://www.amazon.com/Russian-Silhouettes-Genna-Sosonko/dp/9056912933/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301683434&sr=8-1-spell
Thank you for reseeding and putting a great book back into circulation! I will reseed at least three times!
Downloaded this within an hour of being reseeded. It was uploaded for the first time within another hour. Read practically all of it in one sitting - just couldn't stop. A work that deserves a place among all memoirs, not just just the chess sub-category. Thank you, Djofullinn!

No problem, I aim to serve. Enjoy.
I've already seeded three times but have decided to go further. It would be great if Sosonko's two other books of memoirs were uploaded.

akalbabb, I have Smart Chip somewhere I remember, will upload when I find it. My spoils are frankly mountainous after years of pirating but rather disorganized. Not sure about Reliable Past but I will look.
Thank you, Djofullinn. Will watch out for them.
Thank you very much!
