A young boy named James wants to play golf but isn't allowed at the local 'white's only' course. He starts caddying and meets Charlie, a long-time caddy-ostensibly Charlie Sifford, the first black PGA golfer. After a day of hard work, Charlie shows him how he plays the course at night, in the dark. Great author's notes and a timeline of African-American's in Golf. Charlie and James encounter plenty of racism at the course. A few outdated references, but still a keeper. ( )
