Hi,
I would be glad to attempt to validate. We will need to pay close attention
to the descriptions of positions because typically in chess books, they
show the positions of the pieces at various points in games. If whoever
scans would want to work closely, that would be good. It may need to be a
sighted scanner. I'm not totally sure about that, though.

Thanks.

A member who is also a chess player has requested that we add some books on
chess. I found 4 titles in the collection that he couldn't find--he didn't
quite know how to look, I think. I sent those to him and suggested he be
more specific and give us some titles and authors. However, I did find that
we have  Garry Kasparov on My Great Predecessors, Part 1 by Garry Kasparov
and so I'm adding Part 2 to the Wish list and hope perhaps some of you
might like to scan and/or validate.
