Review:
[Mark Frost's] first book on golf was, darn it, as close to perfection as any author can hope to attain . . . [THE GRAND SLAM] is unquestionably the golf book of the year (IRISH TIMES)
The second book, like the second album, is supposed to be the hard one and after the massive success of THE GREATEST GAME EVER PLAYED critics doubted Frost's ability to pull it off again. He has in this wonderful bio of Bobby Jones, the first man to lay (IRISH INDEPENDENT, Top 20 Sports Books of 2004)
Fascinating . . . superb (GOLF WEEKLY)
[THE GRAND SLAM] will be read with pleasure in the afterglow of refreshment at the nineteenth hole (SPECTATOR)
