Did that from memory.. Missing some obvious choices I'm sure. Wouldn't include Fischer's book in there in terms of instructional or literary value. I thought of selling all my books, then of donating them and lately I plan to have wall to wall bookcases in my next houses where I can store them all :) 1) ‘100 selected games’ Botvinnik
2) ‘Endgame Strategy’ Shereshevshky
3) ‘Simple Chess’ Michael Stean
4) ‘My best games of chess’ Alekhine
5) Early books by Kasparov
