Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose (Winston Churchill). I mean, what imbecile came up with this as a pastime? And why? These are among the many questions Golf: The True Story attempts to answer about one of the world’s most beloved sports. Frequently funny, and not altogether factual, this quasi guidebook/ history makes for an informative and entertaining read. It is peppered with illustrations and humorous observations. Trace the evolution of golf down through the ages, from primitive man, to ancient Egypt, the Romans and modern times. Get the inside track on the different types of players, and their far-fetched invented equipment. A rollicking and edifying good read. You’ll love Golf: The True Story.

Part history, part guidebook, and part love letter to the game.

Frequently funny, and not altogether factual.
