About the book

This book celebrates the Rockford Community as one of America's most supportive golf towns since the early twentieth century. The focus of the stories and recollections runs from the late 1940's through the early sixties and picks up again in 1989 when Warren met Earl Woods and his thirteen year old son, Tiger. "The perspective I gained as a young caddie in the 1950's turns out to be powerful in retrospect," stated the author. Warren tells of getting his start in golf from his mailman, Bob Frithiof. He writes about Rockford golf history, from its courses to its best players: Ken Scott, Alex Welsh and Dean Lind in the 1950's and seven-time Men's City champ Jamie Hogan today.
