3 comments about In My Dreams, I Walk With You.
  1. This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a review on a book that I have read. Please understand that I have known Dennis for over 30 years and that I may be a bit biased, but this is a book that is important for people to read. This is the story of a regular normal everyday person who has soared over what life has delt him. Dennis has found a way to follow his dreams and do the things that are important to him overcoming every obstacle in his way. The book evokes every emotion as you read about his life and his struggles. This is a great read for golfers and non-golfers alike with its lessons on how to deal with life. Buy it and share it with others.


  2. This is another of those pity party books. Really, just another poorly written book that has no redeeming qualities.


  3. What an inspiration this book was for me. To travel all over and make people enjoy the game you love after over-coming many obstacles and handicaps...this book can inspire those who love golf, dogs, traveling, the pursuit of a dream! Truly, something I will remember

1 comments about Willie Park Junior: The Man Who Took Golf to the World.
  1. This book is divided into two parts: "The Life" and "The Legacy". The first part is supposed to deal with the life of Willie Park Jr.. Even though there was some decent first-hand research, the organization of this first half of the book was chaotic. The first 50 pages deal with the history of the game of golf and the history of Willie Park Jr.'s hometown of Musselburgh, Scotland. Even though I am an avid reader of golf history, I thought this information was very esoteric. Many of the chapters have more to do with the general game than with Willie Park himself. For example, there is a chapter entitled "How Willie Spoke", which describes how golfers of his era used various golfing terms as well as the derivations of words such as bogey, stymie, dormie, feathery etc.. The second half of the book describes Willie Park juniors golf architectural career. The second half is much more organized than the first half. Each short chapter in this second-half describes a golf course designed by Willie Park Jr.. Not having played these golf courses, I had a difficult time enjoying these chapters. However, for someone who is interested in the history of Scottish golf courses, these chapters appear to be fairly well researched and organized.

    If you are expecting a biography of Willie Park Jr. to be the core of this book, like I was, then you will probably be disappointed. If you want to read a book that meanders through the history of the game and discusses Willie Park Jr.'s golf architecture, then this book might be for you.

  1. Tiger Woods is one of the greatest athletes living today. Not only is he a great golfer, he is a great person. He shares his money with clinics that help young people learn to play golf.I liked the book because it told his life story and showed what a winner he is.

2 comments about Tiger Woods (101 Little Known Fact about).
  1. I love to watch tiger woods on tv play golf and he is my favorite golfer in the hole world Amber Nicole Smith .


  2. 15 minutes of superficial research---that's all this little book is. It could have been a good book had the publisher dug deeper to come up with true little-known gems about Tiger. Anybody could have come up with this content by downloading three or four bios or wire-service stories about Woods and then cutting and pasting. The result is a piece of junk masquerading as merchandise.
