Is the Nimzo-larsen the English?

I just received this chess comic, but I disagree with labeling the Nimzo-Larsen as English. Because one can enter the Bird or the Hedgehog and so on. What do you think?

The King's Indian according to Petrosian

Honestly I love this book, and I'm very happy it was suggested to me, because I didn't know it existed. In this video there is an overview of the book and game n. 1 against Geller, Petrosian loses the game but it's quite instructive.

Paul Morphy

Possibly the best book on Paul Morphy since Max Lange wrote in 1859. Gripping from start to finish, it has rekindled my interest in the Pride and Sorrow of chess. Hertan evaluates Morphy in context with his games as he decends into madness. Truly great book worthy of the GOAT, who played for less than three years and beat everyone he faced.
