The Golf Courses of the British Isles

Take a golfing journey with Bernard Darwin and Harry Rountree as they travel the classic courses of England, Ireland, Scotland & Wales on a trip unparalleled in golfing history. Darwin's prose, and Rountree's 64 watercolours, oils & charcoals will bring you back to the time when Old Tom Morris, Allan Robertson, James Braid, Edward Ray Tom, Jr., Tom Kidd, Rhona Adair, Mr. Laidlay, Bernard Sayers, Mr. Maxwell, May Hezlett, Mr. Whitecross and others were the European standard bearers of the game. Crenshaw notes in his Foreword "as a practicing golf course architect myself, I find this book insightful in describing the concepts of strategic design. Darwin had a wonderful feel for what makes a good golf hole. This was second nature to him, so in a way, this book is his textbook for golf course architecture." He further notes, the paintings by Harry Rountree 'are simply outstanding.' Rountree's style evokes what can best be described as realistic impressionism. Golfing moments, as well as the golfing environment are captured with his brush in ways many seasoned golfers may have experienced. His depiction of some of the lost and legendary courses will captivate the reader.
