    Have you ever read about what happens behind the scenes of world championship matches, what is the incredible price to get the championship crown? Chess at the highest level is full of drama, shrouded in a veil of mystery, which only a few are allowed to open. This book is a unique testimony of the struggle for the right to write your name in history. Evgeny Bareev helped Vladimir Kramnik on two matches for the title of chess king: with Garry Kasparov (London 2000) and Peter Leko (Brisaggo 2004). Ilya Levitov on the rights of a friend persuaded him to tell frankly about these fights. The book, based on personal notes made by Bareev directly during the matches, as well as on his many hours of conversation with the co-author, describes the peripeteia of intense struggle, and also gives a detailed analysis of all the games of the two matches.
