The author, an attorney in Canada, has read and compared all of the great golf instructionals of the past century and has brought them all together, complete with citations, into an easy-to-understand book of only 7 lessons which, taken as a whole, will teach you to swing like the professionals. I highly recommend this book for golfers who are becoming serious about what turns out to be a remarkably complicated process -- striking a golf ball

This is a unique instructional book, in that the author takes just the cogent findings from the classic teaching books and unifies them into an outstanding description of the golf swing. At the end of each chapter, he presents an index from those classics which most of us have, including the page numbers, which deal specifically with that part of the swing about which he is talking. Obviously you do NOT need to have the classics, but it amazed me how he was able to tie so many different ideas together. I am very glad to have this book in my golf library, and I bet you will be too. Mine gets a lot of use! (And if you want one, I happen to have a copy waiting at Bill's_Books at the Amazon marketplace.)
