- a beautiful Staunton set from Levitt and Pierce from my oldest Son Mike, that is my primary practice and tournament set;
It would be appropriate to have Bill Lee as one piece and Mickey Rivers as another piece. The Isle of Lewis set is great in demonstrating the feeling of chess as a war game to little kids, because the pieces are very representative of real people fighting.
For this Christmas, if I could dream, I would like to have the following books:
- "The Hammer of Thor, My most exciting chess games" by GM Larry Christiansen and

- "Be the Force, Secrets of the Smith-Morra Gambit" by IM Marc Esserman.
I wish everyone Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, and a safe and prosperous New Year.
Hope to see you January 1 at the Herb Healy.
What would your fantasy holiday chess gifts be?
Please Comment. Maybe Santa is watching.
Thank You.
