I have a whole lot of opening books.

My favorite books are Silman's Complete Endgame Course and The Amateur's Mind by Jeremy Silman. I love the way he writes and walks you through concepts.

I have Reasses your Chess and the workbook on the way from Amazon as we speak.

I have some chess books... but without success looking a rare August Babel"s book Schachkongress in Gleiwitz 1927. I know only that one  available is in library in Leipzig, another in Hague. I have some games from this small tourney but only a few... This period (20-30s) in Silesian chess is unknown...

One more addition on the way:

Eduard Gufeld's My Life in Chess . Dvoretskty recommends a couple of articles that are contained in this game collection when he is talking about thought process in Attack & Defense. I have enjoyed what I have read of Gufeld's The Art of the King's Indian, so I am looking forward to reading a collection of his games.

I'm searching for a ebook version of the book "win with the london system" by Soltis. I'm not searching s free coopy, I want to buy it. Where I can find it ? Thanks
