Booklegger The Fairway Game Books
This anthology of the best golf sports writing focuses on legendary final rounds A<>A- great writing on great golf. Here is Grantland Rice on Bobby Jones at the 1923 U.S. Open; Herbert Warren Wind on Tom Watson's improbable chip that won the 1982 Open; Robert Sommers on Johnny Miller's dramatic Open victory in 1973; Time Rosaforte on Tiger Woods' triumphant Masters in 1997. Plus Red Smith, Wilfred Sheed, Alistair Cooke, John Feinstein, John Updike, and more. Golf is not really a game at all, but a perverse obsession designed to inflict pain on its practitioners, claims Peter Andrews in Golf Digest. But here, gathered together, will appear many of the joys and thrills of this worldwide frustration, or sport. The brilliant prose of Herbert Warren Wind, Thomas Boswell, Rick Reilly and a host of others nail all these golden moments. So pull up an easy chair and join the reader's gallery as you bask in this glorious obsession. Length: 145 pages.
