St Andrews - The Evolution of the Old Course: The Impact on Golf of Time, Tradition and Technology
Scott Macpherson. Hazard Press, Christchurch, 2007
Hardcover, large format, 208 pages. Excellent condition.
In this detailed and comprehensive study Scott Macpherson takes the reader on a journey of discovery from golf’s past to its future. This book charts for the first time the nature of changes to the course since 1821. It describes in chronological order the reasons behind those changes, and explains how the best players have won in St Andrews. We see not only the way in which early remodeling of the Old Course changed the game itself, but also how the course has adapted to almost two centuries of considerable technological change to both the ball and club as well as huge leaps in the skill and strength of players
