Mark Twain had it all wrong: golf is not a good walk spoiled, golf
is a journey. And when Ireland provides the map it becomes an
11,000km odyssey for one man in a camper van. Kevin plays every
18-hole golf course in Ireland in all kinds of weather and with all
kinds of golfers. He deals with a leaky roof, potholes, born-again
Christians and even an Irish mammy. Ireland's beauty shines through
but the people encountered along the way, the golf clubs visited
and the idiosyncrasies of a twenty-year-old camper van form the
fairways on which this story plays. From tee-off to putting the
final hole, this is a true Irish golfing adventure.
