Reviews
Tom Callahan writing about anything is like Julia Child saying, 'If you don't have any plans, stick around and I'll make you dinner.', ...A joyful, definitive biography... Callahan shows obvious affection for Palmer, [and] successfully argues that Palmer's seemingly charmed life included great difficulty even as he revolutionized golf., Tom knows the game of golf as well as anyone in the business. A lot of years, not just a lot of nights, went into this., "A comprehensive and engaging look at a man who was one of America's biggest sports personalities." -- Forbes "Under Tom Callahan's spell, words soar, spin and do the samba on the head of a matchstick. There's nobody better." -- Rick Reilly, ESPN "A joyful, definitive biography.... Callahan shows obvious affection for Palmer, [and] successfully argues that Palmer's seemingly charmed life included great difficulty even as he revolutionized golf." -- Publishers Weekly "Before I played in a Masters or U.S. Open, I played golf with Tom Callahan in Pretoria. So we go back a ways. In my first American major, I was paired with Arnold Palmer. Now Tom and Arnold are paired forever." -- Ernie Els "Tom knows the game of golf as well as anyone in the business. A lot of years, not just a lot of nights, went into this." -- Jack Nicklaus "Tom has been a good friend and a respected journalist in golf for a very long time...

So we go back a ways. In my first American major, I was paired with Arnold Palmer. Now Tom and Arnold are paired forever., Under Tom Callahan's spell, words soar, spin and do the samba on the head of a matchstick. There's nobody better., Tom has been a good friend and a respected journalist in golf for a very long time...

Synopsis
In this definitive biography, veteran sportswriter Tom Callahan shines a spotlight on one of the greatest golfers ever to play the game, Arnold Palmer. The winner of more than ninety championships, including four Masters Tournaments, Arnold Palmer was a legend in twentieth century sports: a supremely gifted competitor beloved for his powerful hitting, his nerve on the greens, and his great rapport with fans. Perhaps above all others, Palmer was the reason golf's popularity exploded, as the King of the links helped define golf's golden age along with Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. In addition to his talent on the golf course, Palmer was a brilliant entrepreneur off it, and one of the first sportsmen to create his own successful marketing brand. Forging an alliance with sports agent Mark McCormick, Palmer parlayed his popularity into lucrative deals, and helped pave the way for the multi-million-dollar contracts that have become standard for stars across all sports. But beyond his business acumen, Palmer was always a larger-than-life character, and Arnie recounts a host of unforgettable anecdotes from a long life in the spotlight. Tom Callahan knew Palmer well for many years, and now pays tribute to this golfing icon. Filled with great stories from the key people in Palmer's life, Arnie is an entertaining and illuminating portrait of a remarkable man and his extraordinary legacy.
