My Opponent Is Eating a Doughnut: Tall Tales, Legends, Gossip, and Rumors from the World of Tournament Chess - Paperback

by Wayne Clark (Author), Tim Just (Author)

Bobby Fischer is not alone in creating antics away from the chess board. His understudies, the royal game's masters, players, fans, coaches, parents, tournament officials, and hangers-on, have created their own "tales from the wild side" escapades. This book chronicles those tales. Over the board chess experience takes a back seat to these anecdotes of human interest, human follies and quirky behavior. Lean back and enjoy this peek at human conduct on the sidelines of the chess universe.
