From School Library Journal Grade 7 Up-A history of golf that includes memorable moments and outstanding players. The first section gives interesting background but includes terminology that is not defined. Carefully crafted chapters on 18 superstars give insights into their personalities, their accomplishments, and their contributions to both the game and other players. Bobby Jones, Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer, Tom Watson, Tiger Woods, Babe Zaharias, and Nancy Lopez are among those included. The second part of the book describes courses, their architecture, caddies, swings, clubs, putting, and the popularity of the game. While readers wanting to know more about this sport will find the book valuable, the text does assume some background knowledge.
