Editorial Review:
Scotland gave golf to the world. With more golf courses per head than any other country, it is still a golfer's paradise. They range from remote honesty box clubs to the superb Open Championship courses and the exclusive conservative clubs of the towns. But Scotland's strength lies in the host of enjoyable courses throughout the land which welcome visitors, and this book helps visitors to find these clubs. Key features include: gives a brief history of the birth and evolution of the game in Scotland; a guide to the language of golf; includes a map which pin-points the best courses; the most spectacular drives; lists nine best "sporty" holes for adventurous golfers; lists nine best "scenic" holes for the more leisurely; and a complete list of every course in Scotland, revised and updated for this edition.
The Scottish Golf Guide Reviews:
A Fine Book about Scottish Golf Courses 
2000-05-07 - First - it's tough to argue with any book with a foreword by Sean Connery, the best 007 ever. Still, David Hamilton's summations of Scotland's better courses are spot on. There are lots of websites out there these days and lots of "coffee table" tomes that are mediocre at best, but Hamilton's reviews and opinions are born of experience. And that's what's important.
practical guide to the golf courses of Scotland 
1999-05-19 - Short capsule descriptions of the golf courses in Scotland, including comments on the courses, directions and booking information. A very personal guide with all of the obvious selections, plus some very personal favorites....lovely.
