A slew of new books authored by local writes have been published recently. Here are some of them:
Hookers, Lies and Penalties
Authors: Bluffton’s Char Bradeen and Peggy Pantano with illustrations by Carolyn Shipka
“Most golf books are so technical and lesson-based that they turn off newcomers to the game, especially women,” writes Bradeen. “Not ‘Hookers, Lies and Penalties!’ This is a humorous story with whimsical illustrations about two women learning the game of golf.”
