Summary

James Dodson, author of the bestseller Final Rounds, returns to the world of golf and to the famous courses at Pinehurst, North Carolina, where he began his love affair with the game. Having reached the crossroads commonly known as the midlife crisis, Dodson goes back to the place where his father introduced him to the game that shaped his life and career with the hope of regaining the fire that had motivated him, drawing inspiration from the touchstones of his youth, and kindling the same enthusiasm in his teenage son. A masterful raconteur, he weaves the history of golf in the Sandhills into his own story. Written with great wit and tenderness and filled with remarkable anecdotes about the game and its players--like Ben Hogan, Arnold Palmer, Payne Stewart, Sam Snead, and Tiger Woods--A Son of the Game is a classic story about a man's quest to recover his lost passion, and to share that passion with his son.
