Von der hinteren Coverseite

In So Help Me Golf, Rick Reilly unpacks and explores all of the wonderful, maddening, heart-melting, heart-breaking, cool, and captivating things about golf that make the game so utterly addictive.

We meet the player who robbed banks by night to pay his motel bills. We'll visit the eighteen most unforgettable holes around the world (Reilly has played them all), including the hole in Indonesia where the biggest hazard is monkeys, the one in the Caribbean that's underwater, and the one in South Africa that requires a shot over a pit of alligators.

This is Reilly's valentine to golf, a cornucopia of stories that no golfer will want to be without.
