Golf Course Architecture in America By G.E.O. C. Thomas, Jr.
Written in 1927, this is the first definitive book written on golf course architecture. With over 100 historic black and white photos, this is the first reprint of the book in its original jacket. The book covers everything from adapting the course to the ground and playing strategy, to a recommendation that putts count for only half as much as "long shots". A great read and a must for every true student of the game. George Thomas, Jr. ‘The Captain", is the architect of such famous southern California courses as Riviera, Los Angeles, C.C., Bel Air C.C. and the Ojai Resort Golf Course.
