Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This is the book Hollywood has tried to block for many years.

Critics say this underground book uniquely and successfully captures the essence of "Titanic Thompson" and is based on information and rights purchased from the estate and living heirs of Alvin Clarence Thomas, the man who created the character, "Titanic Thompson" and lived that ficitional character's secret life as America's seminal golfer, gambler, hustler.

Now you can finally read the story of:

* His early years in Arkansas
* His explosion on the New York gambling/golfing scene
* The match he always hoped for with Howard Hughes
* His first love

What readers are saying:

"Well written and very entertaining. I was sorry that it had to end, and I am looking forward to the next one." - D. Horne

"I really enjoyed this book. This would make a great Movie." - M. Widener

"I found your book engrossing, fascinating, eminently readable, very well written." - M. Bell

5.0 out of 5 stars Titanic Thompson A Stroke of Genius, December 7, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Super and insightful! Gives you the background of how Titanic won before he ever played, masterfully stating how his pre game won him his fame.

A super easy read and statement on human behaviors and the understanding of how vanity and greed are the two greatest sins.
