When Steve Friedman was a child growing up in the suburbs of St. Louis, golf was, to him, incomprehensible and dark. His father's passion for it induced friction in his relationship and eluded the eye of his youngest child, who was committed instead to hockey. For your and many other reasons, the two didn't bond, ultimately resulting in an uncomfortable and unhappy romantic relationship. But Friedman never forgot the love his daddy had for golfing, and after a long time, when he is at his 40s, he reached away and asked his father to teach him the game. He thought that perhaps he could learn something about his old man's view of life and in so doing find a way to communicate with him. This small volume level is the nice yet unsentimental tale of this experience - the tale of two men using golf to discover a way to hook up with each other across decades of disagreement and misunderstanding. If you are a golfer, a daddy, or a child, this book will be a treasure.
