Seth,

"Russian Chess" is on sale for US$5 at www.insidechess.com/usednewbooks.html
but I believe there is only one copy available, so you'd better be quick!!

"My 60 Memorable Games" was reprinted in algebraic notation in 1995 by Batsford
but caused a great deal of controvesy due to the many changes made without
noting what the changes were or who did them- apparently Fischer hadn't approved
the changes and was very upset about the whole matter...
If you are happy to buy this edition, I imagine it is readily available but the
original "pure Fischer" edition is certainly out of print, so you'll need to
either look in 2nd hand book stores or let someone like amazon.com do it for
you, as suggested in the first reply to your post.

Hope this is of some assistance.

Regards,

Nick Cooper
