  • Thank you, John, for posting this and Lawrence for the congrats. Both of you are great and prolific writers and have been very supportive of “Dodging Machetes.” Please support all of their many books including their latest ones: John’s “The Caddie Who Won the Masters” and Lawrence’s “Years On and Other Travel Essays.”
