I think it's sad that so few masters have narrated their matches in book form. Of my whole library, I think the only one I have is the Tal-Botvinnik Match, which is a chess classic. The rest are narrated by seconds or people completely outside the venue. Can anybody think of another match book narrated by one of the participants?

I believe Alekhine may have. I've read plenty of quotes from his own analysis of his games, so that means they must have been written down somewhere....

Yea, plenty of gms have analyzed their games, but i mean a complete match book annotated by one of the players. The Tal book on his match with Botvinnik is the only one i know of.

Some new chess programs have spoken anotations, some by the one of the players, whom are IMs or GMs
