More Info
When acclaimed golf writer James Dodson leaves his home in Maine to revisit Pinehurst, North Carolina, where his father first taught him the game that would shape his life and career, he s at a point where he has lost direction. But once there, the curative power of the sandhills region not only helps him find a new career working for the local paper but also reignites his flagging passion for the game of golf. And, perhaps more significantly, it inspires him to try to pass along to his teenage son the same sense of joy and contentment he has found in the game, and to recall the many colorful and lifelong friends he has met on the links.
This wise memoir about finding new meaning through an old sport is filled with anecdotes about the history of the game and of Pinehurst, the home of American golf, where many larger-than-life legends played some of their greatest rounds. Dodson's bestselling memoir "Final Rounds" began in Pinehurst twenty-five years ago, and now "A Son of the Game" completes the circle as it follows his journey of discovery back to where his love of the game began a love that he hopes to make a family legacy.

“THE GREATEST BOOK ABOUT ME IN THE WORLD.” -MUHAMMAD ALI (1983)

“Ali and Me” is unlike other Muhammad Ali books. Rick’s special fan’s perspective is written in informal style, flavored with boxing clichés, humor, time landmarks (news events, culture, political climate), and uncommonly keen insight into Ali. A refreshing angle fuels a wealth of rich emotion packed in a 100-page 8½” X 11” coffee table book, now featuring 25 full-page photos, glossy full-color soft cover, and epilogue. “Ali and Me” also examines fighters and the fight game in depth, and paints vivid accounts of ring action. In 1963, 15-year-old “Ricky” Kaletsky phoned “Cassius Clay” and enjoyed a nice chat with him. In 1982, “Muhammad Ali” called “Rick” (now as author) at 1:30 AM, to thank him for “Ali and Me.” Ali called again, when Rick’s daughter was born, in 1984. Rick saw Ali fight “live, in person” eight times (including Frazier I). He watched Ali train at Ali’s iconic camps in Miami and Deer Lake. He met “the Champ” several times, highlighted by a visit to Ali’s dressing room immediately after the New Orleans rematch win over Leon Spinks. He has met many members of Ali’s “corner,” entourage, and family, plus his promoters, publicists, numerous opponents, and…yes…Howard Cosell. In 2012, Rick attended Ali’s “by invitation only” 70th Birthday Party in Louisville. Rick curates a small Muhammad Ali museum, showcased with “Ali and Me” on CNN-HLN and (upon Ali’s passing) on local TV stations. Then there was the time he and Ali drank Coke from the same glass!

“This book provides an arresting look into the mind of a superfan.” -- Ferdie Pacheco, “The Fight Doctor” and Ali’s Cornerman (1982)

Despite the incredible popularity of NASCAR stock car racing, most books on this colorful, fast-paced sport have been dull, cliched, and disappointing. American Stock Car Racers is a notable exception, as it combines the historical perspective and insight of writer Ben White (editor of Winston Cup Illustrated magazine) and the remarkable photography of Don Hunter. Their portraits of the men who have shaped the sport are enlightening and captivating.This book profiles over 40 NASCAR legends including moonshiner-turned-champion Junior Johnson, sly mechanical genius Smokey Yunick, hard-nosed yet soft-hearted champion Dale Earnhardt, and pioneer Fireball Roberts.Most books on NASCAR can't compete for fans' souvenir dollars; fans will buy a Rusty Wallace jacket rather than a hackneyed book. American Stock Car Racers is the distinct exception, combining brilliant photography with text that goes well beyond the cliches and stereotypes.

With compelling detail and pure passion, James Dodson recounts the singular brilliance of three golf titans and how they saved the professional tour and created the game as we know it today.

During the Depression golf was in crisis. As a spectator sport it was on the verge of extinction. This was the unhappy prospect facing Sam Snead, Byron Nelson, and Ben Hogan -two dirt-poor boys from Texas and another from Virginia, who had dedicated themselves to the sport. But then lightning struck, and from the late thirties into the fifties these three men were so thoroughly dominant that they transformed both how the game was played and how society regarded it. Paving the way for the subsequent popularity of players from Arnold Palmer to Tiger Woods, they were, and will always remain, a triumvirate for the ages.
