Even  after his recent bombshell adultery scandal, the public still knows  very little about the man behind the golf clubs and multimillion-dollar  endorsement deals. But one thing is certain: Earl Woods, Tiger's  beloved and now deceased father, knew him better and influenced his  life more than anyone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eHis Father's Son\u003c\/i\u003e, Tom Callahan offers a full-blown  biography of earl Dennison Woods, the Vietnam War veteran who raised  the golf phenomenon and, in turn, a full-blown biography of Tiger. With  exclusive access to and interviews with Earl, Tiger, and a host of  other key figures, Callahan provides an unprecedented look into their  lives and the remarkably close relationship they had. With unparalleled  insight into the man who made Tiger Woods the person that he is, \u003ci\u003eHis  Father's Son\u003c\/i\u003e is part biography and part father-and-son love story.\u003c\/p\u003e\"It's always rewarding when a masterful writer digs deeply into a tough subject and comes closer to the truth than anyone else.
