His Ownself by Mr Dan Jenkins

In His Ownself, Dan Jenkins takes us on a tour of his legendary career as a sportswriter and novelist. Here we see Dan's hone his craft, from his high school paper through to his first job at theFort Worth Press and on to the glory days of Sports Illustrated. Whether in Texas, New York, or anywhere for that matter, Dan was always at the center of it all--hanging out at Elaine's while swapping stories with politicians and movie stars, covering every Masters and U.S. Open and British Open for over four decades. The result is a knee-slapping, star-studded, once-in-a-lifetime memoir from one of the most important, hilarious, and semi-cantankerous sportswriters ever.

DAN JENKINS was a best-selling novelist and award-winning sportswriter whose career spanned seven decades. He published twenty-five books, thirteen novels and twelve nonfiction pieces. Jenkins became widely renowned for his writings in Sports Illustrated over a twenty-five-year period, his stints as a sports columnist for Playboy, and his essays, features, and tweets for Golf Digest after fifteen years of writing for newspapers in Fort Worth and Dallas.
