Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Genna Sosonko is widely acclaimed as the most prominent chronicler of a unique era in chess history when the Soviet Union developed chess into an ideological weapon to demonstrate the power of socialism. Sosonko was born in Leningrad, where he lived for 29 years. After he emigrated to the Netherlands, he became a world-class chess grandmaster. This monumental book is a collection of the portraits and profiles Genna Sosonko wrote for New in Chess Magazine, including legends such as Mikhail Tal, Viktor Korchnoi and David Bronstein, and unforgettable personalities such as 'Chip' Chepukaitis and Sergey Nikolaev. The Foreword is by Garry Kasparov.
