Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Golfer's Travels with Peter Alliss takes us on a spectacular tour around the world. From the wilds of Northern Scotland through the arid deserts of Arizona to the mountains of South Africa and beyond, Alliss invites world-famous celebrities to join him on courses set in exotic locations. HRH The Duke of York partners him at Royal Dornoch, actor Gene Hackman takes his clubs to New Mexico and former President F W de Klerk demonstrates his competitiveness in South Africa. The American rock band Hootie and the Blowfish swing through Hawaii and Dame Kiri te Kanawa puts down her clubs to help deliver the post on the little Loch Lomond mail boat. The book also takes us beyond the game itself and its great courses as Peter Alliss and James Mossop interview and observe their guests, and the celebrities reveal a rarely seen side of themselves, often with passion and humour. Politics, culture and history are frequently interwoven, with the Duke of York talking at length about his fascination with the ancient game and former astronaut Admiral Alan Shepard giving a colourful account of that moment when he stood on the moon and looked back at planet Earth.

Book excerpt: From the author of the critically acclaimed golf history The Longest Shot, Neil Sagebiel's Draw in the Dunes is the gripping account of a legendary Cup competition, and the story of golf's greatest act of sportsmanship. In 1969, the 42-year history of biennial golf matches between the United States and Great Britain reached its climax. The U.S., led by Jack Nicklaus, had dominated competitive golf for years; Great Britain, led by Tony Jacklin, was the undisputed underdog. But in spite of having lost 14 of 17 Ryder Cups in the past, the British entered the 1969 Ryder Cup as determined as the Americans were dominant. What followed was the most compelling, controversial, and contentious Ryder Cup the sport had ever seen. Draw in the Dunes is a story of personal and professional conflict, from the nervousness displayed at the very beginning of the Ryder Cup matches—when one man could not tee his golf ball—to the nerve displayed by Nicklaus and Jacklin, who battled each other all the way to the final moment of the final match. Throughout the Cup, 17 of the 32 matches were not decided until the final hole. Most electrifying was Nicklaus and Jacklin's contest, which decided the fate of the Ryder Cup. At the last putt, Nicklaus conceded to Jacklin, keeping the cup for the Americans while letting the British walk away with their most successful Ryder Cup result in years. From this event, which came to be known as "The Concession," Nicklaus and Jacklin forged a lifelong friendship and ushered in a new era of golf.

Book excerpt: Alister MacKenzie was one of golf's greatest architects. He designed his courses so that players of all skill levels could enjoy the game while still creating fantastic challenges for the most experienced players. Several of MacKenzie's courses, such as Augusta National, Cypress Point, and Pasatiempo, remain in the top 100 today. In his "lost" 1933 manuscript, published for the first time in 1995 and now finally available in paperback, MacKenzie leads you through the evolution of golf--from St. Andrews to the modern-day golf course--and shares his insight on great golf holes, the swing, technology and equipment, putting tips, the USGA, the Royal & Ancient, and more. With fascinating stories about Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Gene Sarazen, and many others, The Spirit of St. Andrews gives valuable lessons for all golfers as well as an intimate portrait of Alister MacKenzie, a true legend of the game.
