Showdown in Seville: Karpov-Kasparov II : The Soviet Empire Strikes Back Paperback / softback

Part of the Hardinge Simpole chess classics series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book recounts the fourth and penultimate chapter in the half-decade long rivalry which erupted between Garry Kasparov and Anatoly Karpov.

In the eyes of many this conflict symbolised the clash between the Brezhnev-inspired forces of reaction in the old USSR and the new Gorbachev/Yeltsin-driven imperatives which ultimately led to the collapse of the creaking Soviet empire.
