Can anyone recommend some biographies of famous players that are available in English, assuming there are any?

These might not be considered official biographies, but L19's very own 'logan' has done an excellent job of compiling several collections of professional games in PDF format: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=10643 These collections are not only game records, but include historical information about the professional player at the beginning of the document! It's an excellent free resource, and 'logan' is quite awesome for providing it to us. |

Apart from the picky detail that the correct form should probably be for download, I am curious to know what you would have done had the word for downloading been something different, not starting with d, such as saving.
