...exhaustive researcher, meticulous in his citation and quotation of sources and his editing of documents,” Wroth says. “[He was] a careful prose stylist, and one who saw and clearly described the broader legal and historical significance of the often narrow and technical material with which we worked...
...chose the Colonial because the course favors shotmakers, not ball whackers. At 7,080 yds.--with one par five that stretches 609 yds.--the Colonial is still 700 yds. longer than the typical LPGA setup. But it is also the kind of classic course Sorenstam loves, with narrow, tree-lined fairways, deep, ball-eating bunkers and small, slick greens. "Length is not the most important thing," says Colonial head pro Dow Finsterwald Jr. "This is a position golf course"--a plus for Sorenstam, one of the most accurate hitters in the game.

"In my father's day," Doi says, "they didn't even use thermometers. He just stuck his hand in to determine the temperature." In the final stages of the month-long process, the mash is placed in bags and pressed in what looks like a giant accordion. The liquid that is squeezed out is pasteurized, filtered and aged for half a year in barrels before being bottled...
