## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Unique Read for the True Golfer
*by A***R on April 7, 2017*

Most true golfers do a lot of reading about golf. This could be magazines, blogs, on-line sites and, of course, books. We've all read the pretty picture books, the top 10 rankings, club equipment reviews and the most notable names in the sport. While this is fine and normal, it's a bit played. How many more pictures of Pebble Beach can look at? How many more top 10 ranking categories are left? This book is a much needed and refreshing revelation in the written words of golf. Whoever heard of Ralph Kennedy before? Sounds like a bus driver. Or neighborhood bartender. But his story and journey around thousands of golf courses is a story us golfer rarely, if ever, read about before. We are fortunate that John Sabino brought this character to our attention. We are fortunate we were able to live through the travel challenges and life/times of another era. So well written and interesting with each passing page. A very highly recommended gift/present for the golfer who needs and wants something different ... and is a bit tired of paging through the usual golf centerfold pictorials.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A golf streak worthy of Lou Gehrig
*by M***S on January 25, 2017*

How could it be that such a cool and intriguing story hasn’t been told before? An amateur golfer who was a viral media sensation of his day (albeit through newspapers) and a man of extraordinary stamina. Sabino did his homework and the book is well researched and well written. Bravo for bringing the story of Ralph Kennedy back to life. I would love to play the Old Course at St. Andrews as the 3,000th course of my playing career. And Pebble Beach as the 2,500th isn’t too bad either. I also enjoyed the non-golf historical references sprinkled in each chapter which really helped to set the context and almost had me want to ride the rails to find new golf courses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very easy and interesting read
*by L***K on January 25, 2017*

I read Sabino's first book on traveling to play modern golf courses so I bought Golf's Iron Horse. I enjoyed his story telling in his first book and he makes the transition to a biographical book seamlessly. I was always under the impression that trying to travel and play a lot of golf courses was a modern phenomena aided by the internet and golf magazines ranking. Who knew this has been going on for generations. I was particularly impressed with the chapter on Ralph's epic journey to play in the Western US and Canada and,like in Sabino's first book, his engaging and breezy style is well suited here.
