Reviews for Fairways and Greens

I have followed Dan Jenkin's career since his days as a college golfer. No one has ever written about the game with more wit and insight. A new collection of Dan's stories is joy for all golfers. --Harvey Penick. Dan Jenkins is more fun than a tap-in Eagle. --Rick Reilly Dan Jenkins is the only writer I read and laugh out loud, even when I am among sleeping passengers on a long distance flight! --Robert Trent Jones II
