More entertaining than educational. Not so much about education and more about diving into the people and culture and fun stories. Maybe I'm looking for fun inspiration.

Tal, Mikhail (1997). The Life and Games of Mikhail . It follows the life of Tal in his own writing, and includes of course many of his games. The writing is funny, and you get an idea of the craziness that went on inside this maestro's mind.

I also think Fine gold references the book in some of his videos on Tal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIgApj-goYY
