Pinehurst: Golf, History, and the Good Life [Hardcover]

Audrey Moriarty (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 2005

The village of Pinehurst, with its historic inns, classic architecture, legendary golf courses, leisurely lifestyle and other outdoor activities, has a mythical healing power. The famous Scottish golf professional Tommy Armour said in 1935, "I've seen strangers, jaded and dull, come to Pinehurst and after a few days be changed into entirely delightful fellows." The charm and character of the cradle of American golf hold true today as Pinehurst remains a place where golf and good times reign supreme.
