Editorial Reviews
A meticulously researched work from one of America's leading golf historians, The Book of Golfers represents a unique addition to the game's grand literary history, profiling nearly 1,300 of its most important people dating from the fifteenth century to the present. Arranged in encyclopedic form, The Book of Golfers engagingly covers nearly 1,000 players from 33 countries, nearly 200 of the game's greatest architects and writers, and all manner of colorful ancillary figures. Providing biographical, statistical, and anecdotal information for each, it is by far the most thorough volume of its type ever created.
Though clearly one of golf's ultimate reference books, The Book of Golfers is penned in the author's easy, award-winning style, making for a pleasant, often amusing read that defies the dryness inherent to standard Who's Who volumes.
