’Edinburgh Jimmy’ Rae - a truly unique and brilliant caddie. James Rae was cheeky, filled with mischief, sometimes irascible, but always kind-hearted. In this collection of stories about this son of Lothian, golfers, caddies, friends and family tell of a man who could be challenging and unpredictable, but always managed to provoke a smile.His knowledge and understanding of the game made him a caddy in demand by players. His long-term relationship with Ryder Cup hero and broadcaster, Paul McGinley, was the source of an enduring friendship that lasted until Jimmy’s passing. Paul writes the foreword of the book and tells some of the stories of his time with Jimmy. This is a book for people who love golf, and miss some of the character that has disappeared from the game in an age of ultra-professionalism.
