Around the World in Eighteen HolesIn June 1993, after months of absurdly complex planning, two "fiftysomething" sports writers set off on their own incredible journey. Their mission: to play 18 holes of golf in 21 countries on four continents in just 69 days. In a work that's a cross between Blue Highways and City Slickers, they tell their bizarre but true story - this a book that no fun-loving golfer will want to miss. |
