Daredevil Book for Golfers

by Tim Glynne-Jones, David Mostyn (Illustrator)

Overview

Golf is a traditional gentleman's sport practised on fairways from Atlanta to Zambia (where they have browns as well as greens). But behind all the hierarchy, club rules and etiquette, what s really going through a golfer's mind on the first tee? The Daredevil Book for Golfers takes a sideways look at the sport and finds an awful lot of people aching to win at any cost.
