Clicking in Karpov's website I came across:
Chess Games

The above are 25 annotated games by Andrew Soltis.

In book form:
EB gave a light history of chess.
However, should you locate a 1928 or 1930's set of EB go to the Chess Article.
It runs for pages on the history of chess and offers games of Alekhine, Capablanca and Nimzovitch.

In CD or DVD format:
I contacted EB a few years ago and complained about the chess article.
It appears there was a feature on the DVD for Chess Games, that is,
games probably as indicated above. I received an answer:
When the final product was produced, EB decided to eliminate the game feature.

The Soltis annotations are similar to Chernev's Move by Move.
Games from Philidor to Deep Blue.

You can copy the games with annotations but you will have to enter
move by move to a database product.
For those who are learning chess the product is good.
