Gettin' to the Dance Floor
An Oral History of American Golf

Al Barkow
Foreword by Jaime Diaz

To a golfer the "dance floor" means the putting green, but in the early days of pro golf, "getting to the dance floor" also meant joining the Tour--and enduring bad food, constant travel and infrequent pay. Al Barkow interviewed the pro's who got to that early dance floor, and here tells their stories in their own words-a unique document from golf's pioneer days, with first-hand accounts from Lighthorse Harry Cooper, Gene Sarazen, Sam Snead, and more.

Al Barkow is a former editor of Golf Magazine and currently edits Golf Illustrated. He lives in Clifton, NJ.
