It is my personal ongoing labor of love as a tribute to my fellow American, the great Bobby, Robert James Fischer. This ongoing search and rediscovery of lost games, not known as currently listed on chessgames.com, requires many hours of brainstorming to transliterate Descriptive notation to the modern Algebraic format so these once forgotten games played by history's great chess experts can have a second life breathed in them by a new generation of chess enthusiasts.
