Ben Hogan's Secret: A Literary Portrait
Description:
Truly unique in both concept and approach, here is a fiction based on nonfiction account of what made one of the finest golfers who has ever lived: the great Ben Hogan. A legend in his own time as well as today, Hogan is a four-time PGA Player of the Year, and one of only five persons to win all four Grand Slam Titles. Much has been written about the mechanics of his game, but Hogan's reclusive lifestyle left millions of fans to merely speculate about his mental game and what made it one of the best in the sport. Now that secret is revealed. By interweaving historical fact with careful deduction, author Bob Thomas offers a more complete picture – a mental and emotional picture – of the whole man and shows just what it was that drove this indisputable master to achieve his spectacular records. It’s the only book about Hogan that Hogan himself liked.
