 Unique gift for the golf lover with everything else November 27, 2005
This book was given as a corporate gift to the executives in leui of a bonus. Golly...thanks boss. But seriously, if I wasn't going to get ten grand in cash, I'm very happy I at least got this book.
I have lots of country club friends, or guys who I really only have talking about golf in common with, but I'm not going to buy them a titleist shirt and they have all the gimmicks or gear they'll ever need. This book is perfect for them - the person who has everything, but definitely not this! Anyone would love this book, not just golf lovers, and I have one on both my coffee tables - the beach house and the main one. Mostly, its something unique. Can't miss.
A PERFECT GIFT THAT WILL ALWAYS BE ON THE TOP OF THE PILE July 6, 1999

I FOUND THIS BOOK BRINGING ME BACK TO SOME OF THE GREATEST GOLF EXPERIENCES OF MY LIFE. THE UNIQUENESS OF USING ART INSTEAD OF PHOTOGRPHY IS WHAT SET THIS BOOK APPART FROM THE REST OF THE GOLF BOOKS THAT I HAVE IN MY COLLECTION. THE NARRATIVES THAT MR. VENTOLA WROTE WERE EXCEPTIONAL IN THAT IT NOT ONLY SPOKE OF THE GOLF COURSE, BUT ALSO OF THE HISTORY AND SENTIMENTALITY OF THE GREAT SPORT OF GOLF. I WAS PARTICULARLY IMPRESSED WITH SYD MATHEWS "LEGACY OF AMERICAN GOLF" ALL IN ALL THE NEXT TIME I'M LOOKING FOR THAT "SPECIAL" GIFT IT WILL BE FINE ART OF AMERICAS FAIRWAYS!

The finest collection of the history of American golf courses. Of all the art history books in my collection, "Fine Art of America's Fairways" is the most often opened and admired. Looking forward to another addition.
