Review
Michael Bamberger
Author of To the Linksland and The Green Road Home
Some years ago, when I was planning a Scottish golfing pilgrimage, Jim Finegan, over the course of a long and pleasant dinner conversation, told me where to go and what to do. The resulting trip changed my life. In all of golfdom, Finegan is unique in his passion, his insight, and his ability to bring the game to life in words. With the publication of Blasted Heaths and Blessed Greens, the Jim Finegan experience is widely available. It should not be missed.

Few men know the golf courses of Scotland and Ireland better than Jim Finegan, and no one writes of them more movingly. On one level, this is an indispensable guidebook; on another -- in the tradition of Bernard Darwin -- it is simply a great read.
