A deeply loving, emotional roller coaster of anecdotal and mesmerising fantasy, that will educate and amaze you and leave you with a smile on your face or a lump in your throat.
What divine spark is it that makes a sporting Champion? Is it talent, drive, ambition opportunity, development or simply providence and fate? The eternal question of nurture against nature is always an endless, divisive and difficult subject to weigh and balance.
We meet, Sam Chester firstly as a boy who falls in love with golf at a mere 11 years of age and it seems the golfing gods have chosen him to be their advocate and winner for the highest awards, accolades and prizes.
Or have they?
Sam’s path is quickly fraught and strewn with obstacles then blinding, dazzling but chequered success and subsequent failure; his road seems to be blocked, his ambitions thwarted and too early on in his promised journey, all but ended and turned to dust.
But life or real destiny can sometimes surprise you and on those rare, spiritually guided occasions all you truly need to succeed is, the right catalyst, some love, inspiration and…just that little bit of magic!
A story by Neville Chesses, a former champion golfer himself, who has crafted a classical tale that mixes fact with wonderful, exciting, poignant, dynamic and fantastical fiction.
The early parts of the book are based on unbelievable, amazing truths but with a turn or a twist of artistic licence, and the later chapters just something dreamlike, enchanting and wonderful.
In many ways it is an insight, to how sport and, golf in particular is… and fancifully, how it was meant to be!
Fantastic, intricate, sometimes intimate details on each turned page that will demonstrate to the reader that you don’t have to understand or love golf, to relish and enjoy a wonderfully engaging and moving story.
