This book contains 71 deeply annotated chess victories of Tigran Petrosian (World Champion from 1963 to 1969) against the leading players of his day, some of which are in print for the first time. The authors authoritative but accessible language makes it a good read for the amateur as well as a cast-iron network of interlocking variations to satisfy the professionals. Petrosian was underrated as world champion in his day (many of his achievements were drowned out by the furore surrounding Bobby Fischer) but he is now being critically reappraised Garry Kasparov paid fulsome tribute to him at a recent London lecture.

"El clásico no va de victorias, va de memoria. No es cuestión de goles, sino de identidad. No se trata de quién fue mejor, sino de quién se mantuvo en pie cuando comenzó a escribirse la historia".No todo lo que deja el clasico cabe en un marcador.

C. Barcelona: la ovacion a Ronaldinho en el Bernabeu, el pasillo del Barça al campeon, goleadas historicas, finales eternas y batallas que marcaron a toda una generacion. Pero este no es un libro de tactica ni de estadisticas, sino de sentimientos, de recuerdos, de vivir el futbol como lo hace un aficionado de verdad: desde la piel, con la devocion de quien entiende que un clasico no se juega, se siente. Un viaje personal y emocional por encuentros que no solo se disputaron durante noventa minutos, sino que perduran toda una vida.Este libro nace desde un corazon madridista que aprendio pronto que el clasico es memoria, pasion y herencia; la de quienes crecieron sabiendo que algunos partidos no se olvidan nunca, aunque duelan."Porque en el futbol, como en la vida, no siempre se gana".

**THE FIRST AND ONLY BIOGRAPHY OF DUTCH FORMULA ONE WUNDERKIND MAX VERSTAPPEN, CHARISMATIC WINNER OF THE 2021 FORMULA ONE TITLE** Few drivers have ever shaken up Formula 1 in quite the same way as Max Verstappen. Already the youngest competitor in F1 history, having made his breakthrough in 2015 aged just 17, his debut race for Red Bull at the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix saw him become the youngest driver ever to win a race, achieve a podium finish or even lead a lap.

Sports journalist James Gray seeks to understand the outspoken nature and aggressive driving style that make Verstappen a must-watch before, during and after races, and why his Dutch fans, who turn up to cheer him on in their orange-clad droves, are quite so fanatical.
