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.

This book was released on 1910 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some dozen or fifteen years ago the historian of the London golf courses would have had a comparatively easy task. He would have said that there were a few courses upon public commons, instancing, as he still would to-day, Blackheath and Wimbledon. He might have dismissed in a line or two a course that a few mad barristers were trying to carve by main force out of a swamp thickly covered with gorse and heather near Woking. All the other courses would have been lumped together under some such description as that they consisted of fields interspersed by trees and artificial ramparts, the latter mostly built by Tom Dunn; that they were villainously muddy in winter, of an impossible and adamantine hardness in summer, and just endurable in spring and autumn; finally, that the muddiest and hardest and most distinguished of them all was Tooting Bec. All this is changed now, and the change is best exemplified by the fact that although the club has removed to new quarters, poor Tooting itself is now as Tadmor in the wilderness. I passed by the spot the other day, and should never have recognized it had not an old member pointed it out to me in a voice husky with emotion.
