“It provides essential information on not only the top golfers and major championships, but classic head-to-heads, famous golf courses, the golf industry and golf culture – from Arnie’s army to multi-storey Japanese driving ranges – that have had such a significant influence on the leisure activities and lifestyle of suburbia.  Every golfer, tournament and issue of importance in the history of golf is highlighted in detail in the book.”
