Lawrence Donegan: Four Iron in the Soul


Welcome to the third episode in the new season of Between the Lines!

This is Martin's conversation with Lawrence Donegan about his classic 1998 book, Four Iron in the Soul. The book tells of Lawrence's year spent caddying for Ross Drummond, then the 438th ranked golfer in the world

Lynne Truss said in The Times: 'Not since Bill Bryson plotted a random route through small-town America has such a breezy idea for a book had a happier or funnier result'.

Listen to Lawrence reflect on the influence of Bryson, and George Plimpton, on the book, and how he pieced together this classic of sports literature.

Enjoy!
