Aaron's Chess Library

A picture of the books that I have collected on chess to date.  Most have come from either Goodwill or Mount Sheba rummage in Jupiter, NC.

 I've only read a handful of these books as of yet—slowly working my way through them with a 5" sheesham wood set I just love.  Reviews of the books that I have read can be found here:  Aaron's Book Reviews


I ordered my 5" magnetic set from a guy on eBay.  It shipped from India to NC in less than 2 weeks.  This was before USCF Sales started carrying similar sets.
