4 out of 5 stars Well-written account of the building of a golf course.   May 21, 1996
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Only a small % of the population has ever heard of theprofession of golf course architect, but a large % of thatgroup dreams of quitting the day job and designing golf courses for a living. For them, Strawn vividly describes all aspects of the building of an Arthur Hills golf course in Florida. Strawn is equally good at describing the golf strategy that goes into the course, the lives of the construction workers, and the hassles with bureaucrats. Certainly the best book ever written on the building of a single golf course. (Ok, it's probably the only book ever written on this topic, but it's still quite good in absolute terms).
