　　"Authorized, intimate, and definitive, Ben Hogan: A Life is

the long-awaited biography of one of golf's greatest, most

enigmatic legends, narrated with the unique eloquence that has made

author James Dodson a critically acclaimed national bestseller. "

One man is often credited with shaping the landscape of modern

golf. Ben Hogan was a short, trim, impeccably dressed Texan whose

fierce work ethic, legendary steel nerves, and astonishing triumph

over personal disaster earned him not only an army of adoring fans,

but one of the finest careers in the history of the sport. Hogan

captured a record-tying four U.S. Opens, won five of six major

tournaments in a single season, and inspired future generations of

professional golfers from Palmer to Norman to Woods. Yet for all

his brilliance, Ben Hogan was an enigma. He was an American hero

whose personal life, inner motivation, and famed "secret" were the

source of great public mystery. As Hogan grew into a giant on the

pro tour, the combination of his cool outward demeanor and

invincible, laser-guided accuracy on the golf course froze

formidable opponents in their tracks. In 1949, at the peak of his

career, Hogan's mystique was reinforced by a catastrophic

automobile accident in which he and his wife, Valerie, were nearly

killed after being hit head-on by a Greyhound bus. Doctors

predicted Hogan might never walk again - let alone set foot on

another golf course. But his miraculous three-year recovery and

comeback led to one of the greatest performances in golf history

when in 1953 he won the Masters, the U.S. Open, and the British

Open (something that's never been repeated). In this first-ever

family-authorized biography, renowned author James Dodson expertly

and emotionally reconstructs Hogan's complicated life. He discovers

an intensely honest man handicapped by self-doubt, buoyed by the

determination to prove his own abilities, and unable to escape a

long-buried childhood tragedy - the core of the Hogan "secret."

Dodson also reveals both the legendary devotion and eventual strain

in Hogan's sixty-two-year marriage, and a Hogan rarely seen by the

public: a warm, jovial man whose charitable spirit and sharp

business sense enabled him to build the powerful golf equipment

company bearing his name to this day. Ben Hogan: A Life is the

authoritative inside portrait golf fans have long awaited.
