  2. Chess books are often a good source of these annoyances.

    In a quick scan of Taylor Kingston's translation of Najdorf's book of the Zürich 1953 tournament I found:

    it offered "personal" invitations (p7)

    An already known move which Bronstein himself had to "withstand" at (p45)

    a "mysterious" move (p87)

    many pieces are "hanging" (p 89)

    in games such as this a master "feels" his way (p 89)

    Now Dr Euwe must "come back to reality" (p 299)
