This is a great read if you're a golfer. Each club is described concisely. The clubs that I'm familiar with are accurate, and the rating system is well done. The only area for improvement that I see for the next edition would be to remove those clubs that aren't really private. Four or five clubs listed in Arizona (and I'd suspect in many other parts of the country) have opened up to public play or are tied to resort to generate revenue. Where do you draw the line between "semi-private" and "public"?

Other than this - great effort and good read. Get it!

Wonderful compelation of top rated private clubs across the country. As a traveling sales person this book is quite handy in attempting to request permission to play some of the most storied clubs in the USA. Descriptions are architecturally very accurate and very straight forward. And the unique rating system the author has developed is well worth the price of the book!
