Review:

"Peter Davies has undertaken a monumental task and carried it off in fine style. His dictionary will make a valuable addition to any serious golfer's library and should be one that never gathers dust."-Arnold Palmer -- Arnold Palmer "A fascinating look into the often arcane and sometimes amusing language of our game. I'm sure golfers and golf fans will find it enlightening and entertaining reading."-Jack Nicklaus -- Jack Nicklaus "As golfers we all respect the traditions of the game which separate it from any other sport. Peter Davies's definitions help us all to understand the evolution and facets of the game that we just take for granted today."-Gary Player -- Gary Player
