Summary: How could I go to play golf in Ireland without it!
Review: As we plan our trip to Ireland Jim Finegan makes us realize that we need to spend more time there to enjoy more courses from the great ones to the unknown treasures . His epistle on Scotland does the same. My only real question is, Do I need a Michelin guide as well or shall we just enjoy the beauty and finesse of the Irish courses as he tells us to ?? A great manual for Irish Golf.

Summary: BUY THIS BOOK - BUY FINEGAN'S SCOTLAND, TOO
Review: Golf in the Kingdom comes to life with real information.My golfing buddy and I are in the planning stages of a trip to either Ireland or Scotland. If you appreciate humorous, passionate writing, then this is the book. You can feel the pace of play and exciting in his words. You can also feel his appreciation for the joy of the trip in his conversations with golf pro's, barkeeps, hotel owners. After reading this joyful book, you'll be hooked on travelling just like he has, same courses, same restaurants and inns. Makes a wonderful gift for golfers who fully appreciate the game of golf. Between this and the Scotland book, I think that I've given away seven copies.

Summary: a must have golfing guide of ireland
Review: this book is a must. I am a PGA professional who recently spent six weeks in ireland. thankfully i brought along my copy of emerald fairways. it was just as valuable to me as my golf clubs. his insight on the golf courses are extremely accurate, but the most valuable information is on food and accomodations. It was amazing to have read the book and then experience everything exactly how it read. even the people he comes across and writes about, really exist and are still around interacting in the same manner as he writes. simply a must have for anyone who has even dreamt of going to Ireland. Scotland may be the home of golf, but Ireland is golf heaven. there is a reason so many golf pros (woods, janzen, duval, stewart, etc.) take trips there. Finegan does an amazing job that could not be topped by anyone, not even Christy O'Conner. Enjoy it, I know you will.
