 Love golf - this is a classic September 8, 2008
Love this book for its classic shots as the title depicts. There are wonderful pictures of golfers through the decades, makes a great coffee table book or a wonderful gift for the golfer in your life.
An Extraordinary Collection April 7, 2008
This volume gives us a very unusual and refreshing glimpse of virtually every aspect of the game. The patience and thoughtfulness given to analyzing and selecting from among the half-million images in the USGA photo archives is amazing enough in itself, but what Marty Parkes and his collaborators at Golf House have put together here will stir the imagination and thrill the soul of anyone who has ever held a golf club. Whether it's Tiger with his Dad or Old Tom Morris and Harry Vardon at St. Andrews, Ouimet blasting out of a bunker at the '23 Walker Cup or, perhaps one of the most poignant photos, a group of uniformed servicemen on a practice green at Camp Gordon, Georgia during World War II, this volume has it all ... and all of us will be the better for spending time with it!

I purchased this book as a Father's Day gift for my golfer husband. He loved it! Our golfer son came to visit and he loved it! National Geographic has produced an excellent product with this beautifully photographed and extremely well written volume. My husband placed it on our bookcase...face forward...it's that beautiful!
