I concur. If you are only going to get one book, then get "Reassess Your Chess".

I could be mistaken, but I believe a class B player is between 1600 and 1799. I only say this because I used to have a rating of 1800. I probably play somewhere around 1500 now. It has been a long time since I played. At one point, I entertained the idea of trying to attain the rating of a Master. But I concluded I probably was not talented enough, and the time investment was certainly an issue. There is a big gap between an 1800 rated player and a 2000 rated player. It is a much larger gap than going from 1600 to 1800.
Sincerely,
Brian
