About the Books

A Good Walk Spoiled: Days and Nights on the PGA Tour, by John Feinstein: In the highly acclaimed bestseller A Good Walk Spoiled, John Feinstein captures the world of professional golf as it has never been captured before. Traveling with the golfers on the PGA Tour, Feinstein gets inside the heads of the game's greatest players as well as its struggling wannabes. Meet superstars like Nick Price, who nailed a fifty-foot putt at the seventeenth to win the British Open, and Paul Azinger, who marked his return from a bout with cancer with an emotional appearance at the Buick Open. Go behind the scenes for Davis Love III's unforgettable come-from-behind victory in the Ryder Cup. In golf, Feinstein eloquently relates, the line that separates triumph from disappointment is incredibly fine.

Acclaimed sports journalist John Smallwood--who has covered Iverson extensively--shows readers the Iverson they never knew: the boy, the man, the rapper, the player, the role model, and the icon.
