In this very funny sports book (a cross between Nick Hornby & Bill Bryson) young journalist Lawrence Donegan tells the story of the summer he spent caddying for Scottish golfer Ross Drummond ranked over 400 in the world on the European Tour. This is the inside story of the geniuses the cheats the gurus & the hangers-on that make up the golf scene. A joy to read. Not since Bill Bryson plotted a random route through small-town America has such a breezy idea for a book had a happier or funnier result
- Lynne Truss The Times". Funny beautifully observed & it tells you things about sport in general & golf in particular that nobody else had thought to pass on
- Patrick Collins " Mail on Sunday"."

By the late 1970s boxing had lapsed into a moribund state & interest in it was on the wane. In 1980 however the sport was resuscitated by a riveting series of bouts involving an improbably dissimilar quartet: Sugar Ray Leonard Marvelous Marvin Hagler Thomas Hearns & Roberto Duran. The Four Kings of the Ring would fight one another nine times throughout the decade & win sixteen world titles between them. Like Ali & Frazier Dempsey & Tunney Robinson & La Motta these four boxers brought out the best in each other producing unprecedented multi-million-dollar gates along the way. Each of the nine bouts between the four men was memorable in its own way & at least two of them
- Leonard-Hearns I in 1981 & Hagler-Hearns in 1985
- are commonly included on any list of the greatest fights of all time. The controversial outcome of another
- the 1987 Leonard-Hagler fight
- remains the subject of heated debates amongst fans to this day. Leonard Hagler Hearns & Duran didnt set out to save boxing from itself in the post-Ali era but somehow they managed to do so. In Four Kings award-winning journalist George Kimball documents the remarkable effect they had on the sport & argues that we will never see their likes again.
