[From back cover] A high-tech tycoon who plays golf with a half-century-old set of clubs; a trial lawyer who claims golf is a public nuisance; a radio shock jock who seeks social acceptance for himself and his "morning menagerie" —these and many other characters are the literary denizens of the Riverdale Golf and Country Club, the fictional setting for this collection of humorous short stories by Charles Rechlin. Organized around standard golf-related topics —such as "The Equipment" and "The Rules"— this collection tackles themes traditional to fine sports literature, using the characters and setting of the stories to raise such universal human issues as friendship, charity, aging and coping with change. Charles Rechlin is a semi-retired corporate and securities lawyer now living in Pacific Paljsades, California. His short stories have appeared in over twenty-five publications, including Potpourri, The Iconoclast, Mushroom Dreams and Words of Wisdom. His collection, entitled The Education of Stanley Whitehead: Reminiscences of a White Shoe Lawyer, recently appeared ¡n serial form ¡n Wild Child Magazine.com.
