Synopsis

The World Atlas of Golf is readily available and perhaps the first book many stumble across which starts them down the rabbit warren of golf course architecture.

Documented are the 100 greatest courses in the world that display architectural brilliance.

The introduction shows how these courses made, the technology used, and profiles of those who built them.

Representing the British Isles are eleven courses in Scotland, eight courses in England, one in Wales, and five Irish.
