Description
A Course Called Ireland is a humorous and poignant account of one man's journey across the Emerald Isle in search of his heritage and the perfect round of golf. Tom Coyne's epic adventure takes him on a 16-week trek to play every seaside hole in Ireland, from the rugged coastline to the rolling countryside.
Along the way, Coyne searches for his family's roots, discovers the transformation of a once-poor country, and finds that the only thing tougher to escape than Irish sand traps are the country's famous pubs. With a unique blend of humor, poetry, and storytelling, Coyne's journey is a magnificent tour of a vibrant land and a paean to the world of golf.
