Capablanca

Winter has made a particular study of José Raúl Capablanca, and critics hailed his 1989 monograph on the Cuban world chess champion. Nigel Short described it as "undoubtedly one of the best chess books I have read," and Jeremy Silman called it "a piece of literature that has become a legend unto itself, and is universally viewed as one of the greatest books ever written about chess."
