 The People He Knew November 29, 2007
I am the author of Striking It Rich: Golf in the Kingdom with Generals, Patients and Pros
This book has been reviewed a lot and the golf advice is worthy of mention but the best parts of this book were the stories about the people he met along the way:
1. The story or Morris williams, Jr. dieing in a plane crash before going out on tour. "I had to relate the tragic news to his mother and father. His daddy fainted in my arms."
2. The day they played a money game with Titanic Thompson and the mystery player (Herman Kaiser) whom they recocnized only months later when his picture was in the paper (because he won the Masters).
And best of all...
3. The story of John Bredemus.
 There is a lot.... June 13, 2007

It's a good book, but you have to read it more one time to discover in some cases what Harvey is trying to say you. The book has a lot of pearls.

Harvey's little book is well worth it. I am new to golf, but I found the metaphors and stories to be very helpful. It is not as direct as many golf books, but it is wise. I found good information on the swing, bunker play, practice, and many others. Penick has firm opinions on many golf matters, but these are generated by a lifetime of golf and observation. If you have been whacking away on the driving range, this book could really help. It helped me to stay focused on fundamentals. John
