Every golfer, from scratch to 36, will benefit from reading this book (Joseph S. F. Murdoch, President, Golf Collector's Society )"On one level, this is a lucid look inside the mind of a golf architect. On a second, more important level, it's an instruction book--it tells you exactly how to read a course." (George F. Pepper, Editor-In-Chief, "Golf" Magazine )"Tom Doak is a practicing golf architect and a dedicated student of golf design. He is also quite good at explaining many of the more technical aspects of golf literature in easily-understood terms.
