A modern classic that no child should miss. Since it was first published in 1939, Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel has delighted generations of children. Mike and his trusty steam shovel, Mary Anne, dig deep canals for boats to travel through, cut mountain passes for trains, and hollow out cellars for city skyscrapers -- the very symbol of industrial America. But with progress come new machines, and soon the inseparable duo are out of work. Mike believes that Mary Anne can dig as much in a day as one hundred men can dig in a week, and the two have one last chance to prove it and save Mary Anne from the scrap heap. What happens next in the small town of Popperville is a testament to their friendship, and to old-fashioned hard work and ingenuity.

For all golfers, there is a dividing line that separates life into two disparate worlds: the world that can only be dreamed about, that of the one-putting, three-hundred-yard-driving, sub-par-shooting professional; and the world of golfing reality, that of the club-throwing, four-putting, double-bogeying hacker. Is there a man brave enough to straddle both worlds? Someone willing to spend time with Jack Nicklaus and play a course in northern England, where you have to hit a perfect drive in one hole or wind up in a corral hitting next to a bull? Someone who's willing to analyze the top players in the game and confess to tossing a whole set of clubs right smack-dab into the middle of a water hazard? Luckily for all golfing fans, there is such a man, Glen Waggoner, whose devotion to - and terror of - the game of golf is wonderfully detailed in Divots, Shanks, Gimmes, Mulligans, and Chili Dips. The first half of the book - the Front Nine - is all about Waggoner's life on the pro tour as a reporter and observer. He learnedly discusses the practice habits of the top pros; meets his idol, Arnold Palmer; discusses the unbelievably lucrative business of modern-day golf; gives us insight into the mind-set of top pros like Fred Couples and Mark Calcavecchia; predicts who will be the next Palmer/Nicklaus/Watson-type dominant golfer. The Back Nine is the personal life of a hacker. Here, Waggoner talks about the fine art of club-throwing. He discloses terrifying secrets of sand traps that even Lawrence of Arabia couldn't get out of. He goes to golf school, taking lessons from the world's greatest golf teacher. He plays St. Andrews - and the caddy is still snickering. Most of all, Glen Waggoner is atypical golfer - which means he loves the game more than he loves breathing. That love comes through with such humor, such affection, and such quirky insight that Divots, Shanks, Gimmes, Mulligans, and Chili Dips is bound to become a golf classic.
