Caddy for Life is a very good look at Bruce Edwards' many realtionships - with family, friends, wives, other caddies, golfers, and most importantly, Tom Watson. There's a lot of golf sprinkled throughout... The story is feel-good and heart-wrenching at the same time... Far better than 'Good Walk Spoiled' and one of the better John Feinstein books, in my opinion...

I really enjoyed this book. I play golf, so it made the book even more enjoyable. But, you don't need to play or even understand golf to enjoy this story. This book is a great read. i would recommend it to anyone. I gave it a 4-star because it wasn't what i called a "tear jerker", but it was pretty darn close.

Typical John Feinstein insight into the sports world. A must read for golf fans interested in an insiders view to the PGA Tour.
