Description
Whenever golf ※meccas§ are discussed, you can be sure that Long Island, New York will not be mentioned. But it should be. And the reasons are clear in
, by William Quirin. In size, Long Island is small; it measures a mere 1,200 square miles. In terms of golf history, however, it＊s huge. The first famous golf course in this country, The National Golf Links of America, is located there. Shinnecock Hills Golf Club, the site for the first playing of the U.S. Open, is located there. The site for the 2002 U.S. Open, Bethpage State Park＊s Black Course, is located there. And the history goes on an on.
Carefully researched and beautifully written,
is a heart-felt tribute to one of golf＊s most historic places. Vintage photos of golf in the early days, and spectacular color photography by L.C. Lambrecht of some of Long Island＊s best courses, add even more to its appeal.
