Publisher's Synopsis
The Little Book of Golfis a 144-page hardback book that charts the rich history of this challenging and occasionally infuriating game, no sport has so enchanted its followers, and none has provided so many tales of triumph and despair. All the great players are here, from the first Great Triumvirate of Harry Vardon, JH Taylor and James Braid to America's response in the form of Ben Hogan, Sam Snead and Byron Nelson. Later came the Big Three of Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Arnold Palmer, and Europe's Famous Five: Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Sandy Lyle, Bernhard Langer and Ian Woosnam. Updated with an extra chapter celebrating the exploits of the European team at the K Club in Ireland in September 2006, this is a perfect Christmas present for all fans of golf.
