WOW...

I never imagined that two subjects so seemingly dull could be brought to life with such incisive and telling limericks. Mr James' humor made this jaded golfer's wife want nothing more than to smack a few balls in Texas.

Great fun from cover to cover!!

In all of his books, Joe James' astute powers of observation enable him to capture the ideosyncracies of the Texas psyche with intelligence and humor, and the illustrations are always priceless. This book is certainly no exception, it ranks as one of my favorites! Texans, golfers, and anyone familiar with both will be delighted; strangers to the Lone Star State will want to catch the next plane down to see for themselves. An absolute joy to read!

James does it again!

Don't be fooled into believing that this is just another golf book or another book about Texas. This book says so much more about the human condition than any other cartoon or limerick book I've ever read. James is an astute observer and a masterful artist and this may well be his greatest achievment yet.
