Hey Tom , if you find another box keep me on the list. Lost my whole first floor in the hurricane here at the shore and just today was trying to dry out my signed copy. Its disheartening as just realized that almost all my golf books are trashed , many signed . Amazing how weeks after the storm you keep finding more damage. My heart goes out to all those less fortunate than my wife and I, who just lost possessions.
Water and mud destroys everything , somehow my bookcases got penetrated and now I've got to reboot . Must have lost 75 wonderful books, Tom's was one of my faves. It really sparked my love of golf architecture and helped me conceptualize Twisted Dune. For anyone here who hasn't read it, the detail in the Confidential Guide , and the breadth of the research is quite impressive.
Now here's where I'm blessed. When we opened up the bookcases and saw the mold and water had destroyed all our wedding pictures, my wife's grade school and high school albums , etc etc she was more upset about my losing my golf library , knowing it will be impossible to replace all my Pine Valley notes and signatures.
I told her Ill have to start looping again , and she said they wouldn't have me , LOL !
Archie, I feel for you. Hang in there.
