Correction to author bio June 27, 2000 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
I'm not writing to review this book, I'm writing to correct an error in the author's bio (The "corrections" section of your website did not have a space for this, so I'm doing it here). Joe Passov is the former editor of LINKS Magazine, not the current editor. Please do not post this message, just make sure the correction is made. Thank you.

Finally a travel guidebook that offers something other than meaningless fluff! Passov is a great storyteller who relates what's its really like to play some of the best golf courses in the eastern U.S. You'll want to clean the grass off your shoes after browsing the chapters. In addition to honest and informed opinions on the golf courses, Passov also provides an encyclopedic amount of information on resorts, restaurants, and other activities in the vicinity of the golf courses. If all guidebooks were this breezily written, entertaining, and full of hardore travel info, you'd never have a bad vacation or a disappointing round of golf. My only hope is that Passov will cover the rest of the country-- and the world-- soon so I know where to go next for a great golf vacation.
