 Course Architecture and Maintenance July 20, 1998
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
MacKenzie shares his timeless, and oft forgotten, philosophy on how a course should be designed - for the golfer, but not by the golfer; shaped and, when necessary reworked, by the professional architect, not by the whims of a committee; and finally, playable by all who love the game.
A masterpiece work from one of golf's greatest legends October 15, 1996
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book, written in 1933 and never published until 1995 is the greatest find in golf. Entertaining anecdotes, wonderfulessays--all of which is incredibly interesting and relevant today. WSJ called it "another Dead Sea scroll" for golfers. The foreward was written by his co-designer at Augusta National Robert Tyre "Bobby" Jones, Jr. An incredible discovery that you must read. A true timeless classic. On a scale of 1-10, it is a 12.
