I got hold of two old books of chess:
1- Chess for Fun & Chess for Blood
by Edward Lasker
2- The Golden Treasury of Chess
by Frank J. Marshall
will these books be helpful in improving my game?
You can check out my Need Help threads. I posted some links there to websites I have used and like and those will help you.

"The Golden Treasury of Chess" that I am familiar with was written by Reuben Fine, I believe. Maybe Marshall published the original edition, and it was updated by Fine.
