A gripping chess book about the legendary 1972 world title match between Soviet icon Boris Spassky and American challenger Bobby Fischer.
When the Icelandic Chess Federation bid to host the match, few believed a small island nation with a population of less than 300 thousand people could stage such an event. Yet Gudmundur Thorarinsson’s account shows how the bid was won and how the match was ultimately rescued.
This tell-all book is filled with behind-the-scenes stories, unexpected twists, and the real drama that surrounded one of the most iconic sports contests of the Cold War. It covers Fischer’s demands, his late arrival for the first game, the second-game walkout over noisy cameras, and his third-game comeback in a back room.
