From the introduction by Herbert Warren Wind: "It is a considerably expanded successor to Murdoch's THE LIBRARY OF GOLF, a bibliography that was published in 1968. Whereas that guide introduced the reader to about nine hundred golf books, both well-known and recondite, the new bibliography is a far more ambitious and inclusive work. Donovan, a bookseller whose hobby is collecting golf books, has ranged far and wide searching out books on golf, golf club histories, golf club handbooks, golf pamphlets, and verse and song about the game." Illustrated with numerous photos of golf book covers. From the preface by Richard E. Donovan: "I have arranged the bibliography into four eras: The Featherie 1620 to 1850, The Gutta Percha 1851 to 1900, The Rubber Core 1901 to 1960, The Hard Core 1961 to 1985. An introductory essay precedes each era, providing a perspective on the significance of the literature and the authors of that era. Entries are arranged by author and title and listed in alphabetical sequence, location where published, publisher, year, edition, pagination, binding, illustrator, size, and an assigned reference number."
