Mikhail Tal: Triumph and Tragedy (Part I)

Exactly 20 years ago, on June 28, 1992, one of the greatest and most popular champions of all time, Mikhail Tal, passed away. In a fitting conclusion to his own legacy of chess before all, the Magician from Riga had escaped from the hospital on May 28, where he was dying from kidney failure, to play in the Moscow Blitz championship where he faced Kasparov. <a href="[Post:view_link]">A tribute by Prof. Nagesh Havanur.</a>
