Golf: The Impossible Collection
Some golf courses are known for their beauty, others their history. Some are lucky enough to have both. But if it's truly worth mentioning, you'll find it in Golf: The Impossible Collection. Compiled by award-winning golf journalist George Peper, this astounding compendium covers the 100 most notable courses around the world. From the hallowed fairways of St. Andrews to greens and clubhouses built within the last few years, it gives intimate details of each and every spot alongside stunning photography and quotes. While the book itself is meant for casual reading, expect a serious urge to start booking tee times when you pick it up. Arrives in a hard shell display case.
