From: the jacket:  "This is one of the rarest and most sought-after books in the whole literature of golf.  For those interested in golf course architecture, this is a profound study of the school of strategic design.  For travellers, The Golf Courses of the British Isles is far more than a guide: it evokes the atmosphere and inner qualities of each course as no other book ever has.  For historians, this is a treasure trove of all aspects of golf as it entered its modern period.  For those who like golf art, Rountree's watercolors may be the best ever done.  For readers, this is one of the most beautifully written books on any subject.  For golfers, The Golf Courses of the British Isles is the ultimate expression of the game's mystery and allure."
