"Since its first publication in 1976, The World Atlas of Golf has been hailed as a "golf collector's dream", the book every golfer wold like to possess. Since 1976, too, most of the world's great courses have been subject to modifications in order to meet the ever-increasing demands of major tournaments as well as the general lengthening of the game at every level inspired by advances in design of both clubs and balls. This third edition of The World Atlas of Golf takes account of these changes in the course maps, the commentary and the course statistics. The combination of unique maps and superbly selected photographs plus the words of four of the most perceptice golf writers of all time enables the reader to really appreciate just why these courses are great and what it feels like to play on them. Their illustrious histories, the special challenges of their outstanding holes, the subtelties of their architecture are presented in such a way that the atmosphere of these places comes alive. The courses added to the North American section of the Gazetteer reflect the latest ideas and trends in golf architecture -- many are the work of Jack Nicklaus -- and set a pace in design as formidable as on the field of play. The complexities of modern course design would have been unimaginable to those early golfers knocking a feather ball around the sand dunes of the Scottish coast, but here, in this thoughtfully revised edition, the evolution from the past to the present greatness of the game of golf is superbly encapsulated." -- from the inner front jacket flap.
