 great book - needs cover January 9, 2007
Ordered this book. It is a beautiful table top book that did not come with the cover. I thought this was pretty major. The inside of the book is extraordinary. All golfers in my home really loved it.

There are few things as comforting to the Northeast golfer, sitting at home in a comfortable chair with a strong fire, as a good (no, make that great) golf book.
Robert Sidorsky has fashioned together some of golf's best writing on its best subjects (the game's character, it's past and present history, it's greatest venues and it's finest moments). The illustrations and photos are wonderful eye candy that accompany excellent writing by the likes of Wind, Keeler, Updike, Nash. Jenkins, and Murray. This book is genuinely enjoyable to any golfer, regardless of the degree of their addiction.
I bought three, one for myself and two for gifts!
