Reviewed by John Donaldson
Opening books come and go but a good game collection lives forever. VICTOR BOLOGAN: SELECTED GAMES 1985-2004 is such a book. Victor Bologan of Moldova is a strong grandmaster who is often rated around 2700 -- just outside the world's top ten. He is known for his dynamic style and fighting spirit.
A good game collection not only has well-annotated games using words as well as variations, but also offers biographical material that gives some insight into what sort of person the player is and how he developed. Pictures, crosstables and indexes complete the picture and Bologan's book has it all plus a foreword by Garry Kasparov who notes how rare it is to see such a book in this day of "Informant style notes." To add to the total package, Bologan has included valuable lessons at the end of each game.
Highly Recommended
