Spassky's 70 most brilliant games from the time he was a twelve year-old Queen's Gambit prodigy to the World Championship period (1949-71), with Soltis' brief introduction, briefer commentary, and index of openings. Only two Fischer games (Santa Monica, 1966; Seigen, 1970) are included, as if Reykjavik never happened. Spassky the King has been mated, but long live his best games.
