For six months he carried the bags of some of the game's finest, most promising, and most colorful charactersfrom legends such as Al Geiberger ("Mr. 59") and George Archer, to up-and-comers like Brad Faxon and Steve Elkingtonin tournaments ranging from the Byron Nelson Classic to the British Open to the PGA Championship. The Green Road Home is an entertaining and insightful behind-the-scenes account of days and nights on the PGA Tour; a true classic of sports writing.
