 Not Display or Coffee Table Worthy January 3, 2010
C. Acuff (Metairie, Louisiana)
I bought this as a gift, and am very disappointed in how small it is. Yes, I could have -- and now realize I should have -- checked the dimensions, but I didn't.
The photos are nice, but like others have said, there are not enough of them and the bottom line is that it is just not display or coffee table worthy.

Very fast shipping which I really appreciate. Book in great condition and wonderful price. Thanks!
 Pacific Grove sold me this book! October 11, 2009
Bob the Book Reader (San Francisco, California USA)
I live on the Pacific Grove Golf Course. It is listed as one of the 50 places to play. That sold the book for me. It sits on my coffee table.

I liked this book because it has great pictures and it includes information such as green fees, but I felt a few of the choices weren't so good. But it is great for short reads to inspire one to golf more and to dream of better lies.
A Must-Have For Any Golf Fanatic February 12, 2009

Part coffee table book, part guidebook, this well-produced volume features fifty recommendations of some of the greatest courses in the world. Author Chris Santella asked esteemed golf industry professionals around the world to recommend their favorite course. Those interviewed by the author include such golf luminaries as Robert Trent Jones, Jr., Pete Dye, Peter Jacobsen, Nick Faldo, and Dave Pelz. The content of each course description is approached like a magazine article, with quotes from each interview interwoven with well-written descriptions of the course and a few special holes. The accompanying photos are excellent, and the "If You Go" section at the end of each course provide some basic directions on how to get to the course, where to stay, and how to book your round. A very-nice book.
-Bryan Fryklund, author of The Golf Fanatic's Guide to Hawaii
