"I knew little to nothing about Bobby Jones before reading this book. I really enjoyed Grand Slam and learning about the life of Bobby Jones who I now realize may have been the most dominant American athlete in his/her sport. The book is interesting, easy to read, and I would recommend it."
"This is an in depth portrayal of a fascinating man in both American history and American sporting history. It tells the little known story of how golf was introduced to America, intertwined with the events of the American landscape of the period, focusing ultimately on the life story of Bobby Jones. A great read for any sports fan."
"Loved this book, mostly because it's all about a hero of mine. Also gives a great recount of the United States and the rest of the world in which Jones grew up."
