Golf is a great sport, but like life itself it is full of contradictions. It's pastoral yet exclusive. It is loaded with strict rules that are routinely bent by the casual player. It's a quiet cerebral game but it's full of raw emotion and can drive some people crazy. And for all its prim respectability, golf attracts a broad cross section of players, fans and people that make the sport function. The Golfing Chronicles is a collection of fictional short stories set in the village of Sea Side, Rhode Island and focuses on the curious characters that live in and at the margins of the golfing world. These stories range from a humorless greenskeeper out to kill Bill Murray for his portrayal in Caddy Shack, to a young woman who makes millions diving for golf balls in alligator infested water holes, to young man who contemplates about his life as he retrieves balls at a driving range while golfers take dead aim at his head. The Golfing Chronicles is a fun read for the busy golf executive, the weekend hacker and even to the millions of others that don't follow the sport.
