It is fascinating to trace Petrosian's chess development, year by year, and to see the genesis of his great rivalries. This is an eye opening account of the first half of Petrosian's chess career and I am already looking forward to reading the concluding volume. Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine, November 2020 I enjoyed the book greatly. Grandmaster Matthew Sadler, New In Chess Magazine, November 2020
