Resumen del editor

A former Augusta National caddie recounts the invaluable life lessons he learned from the late Freddie Bennett, the fabled club's legendary caddie master. 

Though he was born and raised in Augusta, Georgia, home of fabled Augusta National and The Masters, as a child Tripp Bowden was too young and too removed from the game of golf to realize what Augusta National really was, what it meant to his town and the world and the sport; its history, nostalgia, prestige and secrecy. All the 10-year-old Bowden knew about golf was that it was a stupid game that took up too much of his father's time, and that he'd much rather kick around a soccer ball or stay home and read a book. But all that changed once Bowden's father, a renowned local doctor, introduced him to one of his patients, Freddie Bennett, the legendary Augusta National caddie master. 

Though Bowden was a White child of considerable privilege and Bennett was an older Black gentleman of more modest means, the two formed an unusual bond. It was Bennett who introduced Bowden to the game of golf, a sport that would one day earn him a Division 1 golf scholarship and lead him to the final stage of a British Open qualifier. But it was the lessons Bennett taught the young Bowden off the course that had their profoundest impact on his life. Through Freddie and his particular brand of homespun wisdom, the author learned invaluable lessons about personal responsibility, hard work, and respect for others regardless of age, race, or religion. He also learned that there's much more to life than just playing golf. 

Like the best sellers Tuesdays with Morrie and Seasons of Life before it, Freddie & Me is a heartwarming tale of two unlikely friends and their uncommon bond forged through sport.

Reseñas editoriales

In Freddie and Me author Tripp Bowden reminisces about his upbringing in Augusta, Georgia, where his father’s devotion to the game of golf served as the impetus for Bowden’s lifelong friendship with the titular Freddie Bennett, whose lessons and companionship shaped his thoughts on respect, hard work, and success throughout his life.

Voice actor Scott Pollak performs this sparkling memoir with humor and optimism, highlighting the ups and downs of Bowden’s life with equal measures of respect and precision. This heartwarming audiobook has much to say about life, and golf, and the space where the two meet.
