Amazon.com Review
Like baseball, golf is a game that loves to look back on itself, and this oversized volume, originally published in the late 1980s, does the retrospection splendidly. Touching on all aspects of the game--its history, its stars, its appeal, its courses, its equipment, and even some basic instruction--it both introduces and commemorates a sport with deep roots

5 out of 5 stars Nice Chronicler of Centennial American Golf   May 18, 2001
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Great record of game. Worth having just for the photo collection and memorabilia displayed.

The writing is outstanding and shows the birth of the game on American soil to start of USGA, professionals, ladies entering game, to architects, to players, and literature.

Especially enjoy the watercolors of the 100 Heroes of American Golf and the accompanying writeups.

Collectors item.
