The Mystery of Golf - Paperback

by Arnold Haultain (Author)

First published in 1910, "The Mystery of Golf" is a detailed treatise on the sport, with chapters on its history and origins, popularity, development, and much more. This fantastic book will appeal to those with a real passion for the sport, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage golfing literature. Contents include: "The Layman's Ignorance", "Recondite Character of Golf", "The Layman Essays the Game", "The Origin of Games", "Art and Sport", "National Character in Games", "Modern Rampancy of Sport", "Apotheosis of the Sportsman", "The Fascination of Golf", "The Essence of the Contest", "Uniqueness of the Game", "The Professional and the Amateur", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on dance.
