Asa Hoffmann, New York chess hustler

Can you imagine a chess book, written by a master, which contains exactly one chess diagram, and the notation of a single 17-move game? And that you would not be able to put it down? That is what happens with this unique work, written by chess master Asa Hoffmann, with his wife Ginny. Asa has spent a lifetime hustling game in the clubs, parks and streets of New York, and his account of his days there is absolutely compelling.
