"Arnie, a lovely tribute by the great Tom Callahan about his friend Arnold Palmer, is an absolutely worthy bookshelf partner to Callahan's previous books about Johnny Unitas and Ernie Accorsi." - New York Post "A 2017 biography so rich in anecdotes it begs to be savored like a box of chocolates." - New York Times "A comprehensive and engaging look at a man who was one of America's biggest sports personalities." - Forbes "Consider this laudatory biography to be the screenplay for the movie." - Library Journal "Under Tom Callahan's spell, words soar, spin and do the samba on the head of a matchstick. There's nobody better." - Rick Reilly, ESPN "Tom Callahan writing about anything is like Julia Child saying, 'If you don't have any plans, stick around and I'll make you dinner.'" - Tony Kornheiser, Pardon The Interruption "I've never knowingly blurbed anyone's book, and I'm not likely to do so for someone who calls me 'Al.

'" - Alistair Cooke, who left Callahan an all-purpose blurb in case he ever needed it "A joyful, definitive biography. Callahan shows obvious affection for Palmer, [and] successfully argues that Palmer's seemingly charmed life included great difficulty even as he revolutionized golf." - Publishers Weekly "Callahan's lively and brisk writing style makes for an eminently readable book jam-packed with anecdotes and stories golfers will love." - Kirkus Reviews "Mr. Callahan has teed up a different sort of biography and knocked it dead center down the fairway." - Leigh Montville, Wall Street Journal "Before I played in a Masters or U.S. Open, I played golf with Tom Callahan in Pretoria.

So we go back a ways. In my first American major, I was paired with Arnold Palmer. Now Tom and Arnold are paired forever." - Ernie Els "Tom knows the game of golf as well as anyone in the business. A lot of years, not just a lot of nights, went into this." - Jack Nicklaus "Tom has been a good friend and a respected journalist in golf for a very long time. [He] has a special way of getting to the heart of the story." - Gary Player.
