The Handbook of Golf History

By Sara Riso and Douglas Lonnstrom

The game of Golf evolved from various forms of stick and ball games over a long period of time. While it is difficult to determine the exact origin of golf, this HANDBOOK was written to be an informative guide tracing the history of Golf back to the 1400s. Topics covered are terms, balls, clubs, majors, women's Golf, PGA and LPGA results by year from the beginning. There is a trivia quiz to test your knowledge. Until you read this book you will never know how little you knew about the game.

Customer Reviews

A Tome for the Professorial Golf Historian.

A labor of love for the two authors. There are some interesting sections on golf history. Most is a listing of competition results. With some ‘interesting’ comments about the event.
