Like Wodehouse? Like golf? Read this!
P. G. does it again. Through the words of the "Oldest Member", Wodehouse spins his tales of love, golf and more golf. Though most modern golfers won't have a clue what a mashie or a niblick is, it doesn't matter, because the golf-stricken fanatics in his tales will light a memory in everyone's mind of a person run into on the links, in the airport, or in...

Duplication
All of the stories in this book can be found in the "Golf Omnibus" along with several more. The "Golf Omnibus" in my opinion is a much better bargain.

P. G. does it again. Through the words of the "Oldest Member", Wodehouse spins his tales of love, golf and more golf. Though most modern golfers won't have a clue what a mashie or a niblick is, it doesn't matter, because the golf-stricken fanatics in his tales will light a memory in everyone's mind of a person run into on the links, in the airport, or in the sporting goods store. Wodehouse mentions in passing some of the early greats of golf, and his love of the game comes through in terms of reverence spoken by his characters. The love of golf is ageless and timeless, and to read these stories, written in the 1920's, late in the century proves a link to the past that is strong and vital yet.

Woodhouse at his best,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Golf Without Tears (Paperback)
He might have been a hacker but PG Woodhouse is no hack. His short stories bring sheer delight to golfing readers all too familiar with the object lessons on the many foibles that this game elicits. To err is human, to golf is divine comedy, thanks to PG's ageless wit and wisdom. The Oldest and Greatest Member indeed.
