Golf: Those Were the Days

From the author of When I Were a Lad  . . . comes a weird and wonderful look at the early days of golf
 
In the good old days of golf one could thrash a "gutta percha" with a "mashie niblick" over the old course at St. Andrews and have a damned fine lunch in the clubhouse. These photos of the early days of golf are accompanied by a sparkling commentary, delivered in a classic 1930s newsreel style. Unfeasibly large plus fours, society ladies out for a bash, and weird golf inventions all make their way into this collection.
