James Dodson always felt closest to his father while they
were on the links. So it seemed only appropriate when his
father learned he had two months to live that they would set
off on the golf journey of their dreams to play the most
famous courses in the world. Final Rounds takes us to the historic courses of Royal
Lytham and Royal Birkdale, to the windswept undulations of
Carnoustie, where Hogan played peerlessly in '53, and the
legendary St. Andrews, whose hallowed course reveals
something of the eternal secret of the game's mysterious
allure over pros and hackers alike. Throughout their poignant journey, the Dodsons humorously
reminisce and reaffirm their love for each other, as the
younger Dodson finds out what it means to have his father
also be his best friend. Final Rounds is a book never to be
forgotten, a book about fathers and sons, long-held secrets,
and the lessons a middle-aged man can still learn from his
dad about life, love, and family. Final Rounds is a tribute to a very special game and the
fathers and sons who make it so. -->
