The tests a golfer faces on the course are the direct result of the challenges originally faced by the golf course architect, whether they be complicated terrain, forces of nature, budget limitations, demanding developers, or the difficult task of balancing the practical scientific needs of a golf course with the architect’s creative instincts.

What Customers Say About Secrets of the Great Golf Course Architects: A Treasury of the World's Greatest Golf Courses by History's Master Designers:

It was a gift for my husband and he showed me how he had to tape up the binder to hold the book together. I recieved the book in a timely manner, which I appreciated, however 99% of the time that I order from Amazon and the condition is described as "Used, good as new" the merchandise is in very good condition. This book's binder was in flimsy condition and began to fall apart the day it got here. I was very surprised and unhappy about that and would like to exchange the book for another of the same kind, or get credit to put towards another book of equal or greater value. I'm now leary about ordering things that have been used, whereas before I trusted the description completely and had never been disappointed.
