Alice Cooper, Golf Monster: A Rock 'n' Roller's 12 Steps to Becoming a Golf Addict

Bought this book as a gift, condition said “like new”. Book is a previous library book so has the plastic cover fastened on, with bar codes and stamps on the inside. As well as the “removed from circulation” markings. Also the binding is broken and the front cover is almost completely separated on the inside. Definitely not “like new”.

This book was a great read. I am an Alice Cooper fan, and an avid Golfer which is why I found the book so good. Alice's stories about his rise to stardom and his experiences overcoming his alcohol adiction are really interesting and keep you turning the pages. Anyone would like the book, even if you're not a big fan because the stories are interesting, and the golf sections could be applied to whatever your hobby may be.

I enjoyed this book, my only gripe is he talks too much about golf not enough about Alice. Also I hate "autobiographies" that are in actually ghostwritten because they just sound fake to me. Other than that this is an excellent read and I suggest it for any fan of Alice Cooper.

I bought this book and read it in one setting. There are a few stories told here that I didn't know about, and he does seem to take golf very seriously. I myself detest golf but I must admit Alice is very persuasive. The style of writing utilized here is very difficult to resist and I found the book difficult to set down. There are a few parts in the book where Alice discuses his religious faith, but he's not pushy with it. There are some genuinely funny stories relayed in the book and he does cover a few of the lesser known events of his career. Overall I would recommend this to anyone with an interest in classic rock. I'm not a big golf person and would not know how good his golf tips are.

Well first I am a fan of Alice's music, I am also in recovery, and I like to play golf, if it keeps me clean, than I'm game for 18 holes. Great stories about dealing with his demon's and golf. Rock on Alice

This combo autobiography and golf tips book was really fun to read. There are so many amazing, funny, and quirky stories about various rock stars, golfers, and others! Alice has crossed paths with nearly everyone of any fame or infamy on the planet. Characters like Zappa, Moon, and other rockers/musicians are, of course, mentioned. But there are interesting tidbits about Groucho Marx, Liberace, Salvadore Dali, Rachel Welsh, and President Ford. Lots of great photos are sprinkled throughout the book. The book is written in a very easy to read manner, with the golfing related information presented in a different font. Alice is a great golfer and acknowledged by many of the great pros in the game. It's a wonderful life lesson that he has replaced his bad addictions with this golf addiction. It's equally fascinating that the man offstage is kind, normal, and good, while the Alice onstage today is still as wacky and evil as he ever was. Great showman, wonderful golfer, and just a darned nice "Mr. Nice Guy".
