A Father, A Son, and the Healing Power of Golf
Steve Friedman
Rodale Books (May 10, 2011)
ISBN-10: 1605291250
"For generations, fathers and sons have trudged emerald fairways together in a lacerating enterprise called golf. Steve Friedman does a marvelous job writing about one such improbable outing, in which nine holes of spirited hacking bridged an aching gap between him and his dad. 'Driving Lessons' is a good read about a good walk, unspoiled."
