Book excerpt: Anyone who has spent time at a table with golf afficianado Ben Wright has doubtlessly listened to several of his endless repertoire of stories. The man can recount an event like none other, not only do his tales display his razor-sharp wit and his love for the art of the telling, they always showcase the extensive -- but never pretentious -- vocabulary of Ben Wright-isms.Following the success of his best-seller Good Bounces & Bad Lies that The Los Angeles Times called "possibly the best sports book ever", Ben has compiled a dictionary of Wright-isms, Speak Wright: The Literate Language of Golf.Meet Ben Wright "after the Lord Mare's Show" out by "the trademan's entrance" to hear his story of a "trencherman" with "gravedigger's arms"' who played with the "light of battle in his eyes" until the match ended in "Aquatic Doom' and everyone went home with "a bloody load of sour grapes in their mouths and in their underwear". But first, you'll have to pick up Speak Wright: The Literate Language of Golf, a comprehensive dictionary of golf terms like no dictionary before, compiled by the only man who was Wright for the job.
