The 100 outstanding games in this volume are Mikhail Botvinnik's own choices as the best games he played before becoming World Champion in 1948. They cover the period from his first big tournament -- the USSR Championship of 1927, in which the 16-year-old Botvinnik became a master -- to the International Tournament at Groningen in 1946 -- in which he demonstrated his qualifications for winning the world championship.Botvinnik, an expert analyst as well as a champion, had annotated these games himself, giving a complete exposition of his strategy and techniques against such leading chess players as Alekhine, Capablanca, Euwe, Keres, Reshevsky, Smyslov, Tartakower, Vidmar, and many others. In a foreword, he discusses his career, his method of play, and the system of training he has adopted for tournament play.
A careful study of these 100 games should prove rewarding to anyone interested in modern chess. A full variety of the most popular modern-day opening is provided, including the Ruy Lopez, Sicilian Defense, French Defense, Queen's Gambit Declined, Nimzo-Indian Defense, and others.
This volume also includes a long article on the development of chess in Russia, in which Botvinnik discusses Tchigorin, Alekhine, and their influence on the Soviet school of chess; the author's six studies of endgame positions; and Botvinnik's record in tournament and match play through 1948.

Beautiful Hotel-Like Shower Curtain
Color: White, Size: 72"W x 96"L (Pack of 1), Color: White, Size: 72"W x 96"L (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this shower curtain. The waffle texture gives it such a clean, luxury hotel look and the quality feels really nice and heavy. Putting the curtains all the way up to the ceiling honestly makes my bathroom look so much bigger and more elegant.
It was very easy to put up an easy to use. I don’t get the actual shower curtain wet, but it is water resistant because I did try it so I won’t know if it is mildew resistant because I have a shower curtain liner between it and the water. It is very light absorbent, when it’s closed, you can’t see out the shower and it does make the shower a little bit dark.
I did get it a little too long for my space, but I’ll be using fabric tape to adjust it, so it’s an easy fix. I’m also thinking about ordering another one to do the double curtain look because it looks that good. Overall, very happy with this purchase!

I absolutely love this shower curtain! The waffle texture looks so elegant and instantly made my bathroom feel more updated and spa-like. The material feels thick and good quality, and it hangs really nicely. The color was exactly as pictured and it’s held up great so far. Definitely a simple way to make the bathroom look much more high-end!

Durable and Nice Color, But No Magnets
Color: Brown, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
This shower curtain looks really nice and has held up well so far. The color is a rich chocolate brown, just like the picture, and it looks great in the bathroom. The color is accurate to the picture used in the listing.
Installation was very easy, and the holes for the curtain rings are reinforced, which makes it feel durable and well made. I like that it seems sturdy and not flimsy.
One thing to note is that the Amazon listing suggested magnets for durability, but this curtain does not have magnets. Since I use it as an outer decorative curtain with a plastic inner liner, that hasn’t really been an issue and mold hasn’t been a problem either.
I would definitely recommend using a plastic liner with it. Overall, it looks nice, installs easily, and seems durable.
