Get the book Hypermodern strategy by Jan van reek. Inexpensive little book that can be read in a day. It is a summary of My System by Nimzowitch. Awesome to just binge on. Of your list, I have only read the amateurs mind. It is a pretty good book. Reading game collections is the chess equivalent of taking steroids. Pick up a book on Capablanca or maybe python strategy about petrosian. Fastest way to improve.

Hi everyone! I'm currently rated 750 USCF but with a small sample size, my guess is my effective rating is more like 900. Of course I'm focusing mostly on tactics, but I intend to start some side work on basic strategy books this summer. (I'm a teacher, so I have lots of summer time.)
I've already read Winning Chess Strategies, and plan to read Simple Chess, Best Lessons of a Chess Coach, and The Amateur's Mind. After I finish them, I'll probably re-read them all. What would be your ideal sequence to read these four books?
Thanks!
