The King and I

This is an evocative and intimate collection of photographs documenting the life and career of one of the world's best loved sporting heroes. For more than 50 years, Arnold Palmer (b. 1929) has been one of the world's best-known, successful, and most influential sports personalities. Throughout almost all of his remarkable career - which includes seven Major Championship and 92 professional wins - one man has been at Palmer's side, offering friendship and support, but also documenting the extraordinary achievements, the highs, and the lows. "The King and I" is a magnificently illustrated and intimate photographic portrait of one of the world's best-loved sporting heroes. It features a foreword by Arnold Palmer himself, as well as entertaining and insightful commentaries from his close friends, fellow sportsmen, and celebrity fans - including Jack Nicklaus, former President George Bush, and a host of current and former PGA Tour stars.
