Book excerpt: Let me start out by letting you know that Golf Wit and Wisdom is not going to teach you how to play this wonderful game called Golf. What I hope to accomplish is to give the reader a better understanding of some of the intangibles of golf that they might not know about. For instance, there will be chapters devoted to Golf History, Golf Balls, Golf Clubs and Golf Etiquette. My last chapter will contain a glossary of commonly used golf terminology with a little added commentary. I have also included some illustrations demonstrating how to repair ball marks on the green and a table on how far average golfers, men and women, are able to hit a golf ball for each club. The information is presented in such a way that golfers of all ages and ability will find that Golf Wit and Wisdom, as the title implies, is very informative, easy to read and understand, light hearted and thoroughly enjoyable. Don't be too surprised if you find yourself laughing out loud as you read this book. I can assure you that Golf Wit and Wisdom is not just another "how to" golf book.

Of course there was always bound to be 'a bit of plaster coming off the ceilings of Europe's Chanceries'. Harry Mount has updated his edited collection of the Prime Minister's wit and wisdom with three new chapters dealing with Boris's time as Brexiteer-in-chief; Foreign Secretary and 'On the Threshold of Downing Street'.

So buckle up for a riotous tour of the million-pound NHS funder, golden wonder, pro-having, pro-eating blond behemoth. This is the Wit and Wisdom of Boris Johnson.

Download or read book The Wisdom of Harvey Penick written by Bud Shrake and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Ben Crenshaw sank his putt at the seventy-second hole for a one-shot victory in the 1995 Masters, he bent over, buried his face in his fingers for a moment, then wept in the arms of his caddie. This was Ben's way of telling the world that what he had just done was his own memorial to his great friend and mentor Harvey Penick, who had passed away almost exactly a week before. With Crenshaw's victory, every golfer, every lover of the game, joined Ben in giving thanks to the greatest golf teacher of all time. Harvey Penick's life in golf began when he started caddying at the Austin Country Club in Texas at the youthful age of eight. Over the next eighty-plus years, he enlightened the members of that club with insights into golf and life. In 1992, at the age of eighty-seven, he offered the world that same wisdom in a timeless collection of pieces entitled Harvey Penick's Little Red Book. He followed that with three more books, all bestsellers, and all filled with thoughts, stories, and golf advice that had stood the test of time. Now, Bud Shrake, Harvey's friend and collaborator, gathers together the very best pointers, portraits, and parables from all four of Harvey's previous works. Filled with nuggets of wisdom from Harvey Penick's Little Red Book, And If You Play Golf, You're My Friend, For All Who Love the Game, and The Game for a Lifetime and enhanced with dozens of personal photographs and keepsakes from the Penick family scrapbooks, The Wisdom of Harvey Penick is a lasting treasure from the most beloved teacher in all of golf.
