With a wonderfully engaging and colloquial driven prose, golf lovers will revel and non-golfers will delight. Beginning with how he became an autograph seeker, in sixteen spirited chapters Galiardi shares the best parts.

Nothing new here. Pretty much just backgrounds of athletes/celebrities that this person has gotten the autograph from. When it comes to the parts where he writes about getting the autograph, it is only a sentence or two...and it goes something like this..."I gave the person my golf ball and he signed it with a sharpie."
Very interesting
Joe does a great job of showing "another side" of famous people in his stories. No one else could tell these tales but an autograph hound who doesn't give up and cheerfully chases people until they give in!!!
