Maybe the Best Golf Book You'll Ever Read

Bold statement, huh? But we've read Sports Illustrated's THE GOLF BOOK, and stand by it. This is a celebration of the ancient game, a bright-and-buzzing big book that's equal to the task of bestowing golf's colorful history from 19th century Scotland to the 21st century drama of Tiger Woods.

You'll not become bogged down in this saga because award-winning photos carry the coffee-table book. Extra large pages let shots expand fully and excite—putting you there. Some were before your time and hold you spellbound (Sam Snead hurdling a hedge, Bobby Jones carried through a crowd after his 1930 British Amateur championship). You'll recall others (Jean Van de Velde wading in the Barry Burn, and Henrik Stenson stripped to his briefs at Doral), but in this format they've become even more captivating.

Photography turns the 296 pages, but vivid SI writing pulls you into the book. Roy Blount Jr. introduces THE GOLF BOOK, and Herbert Warren Wind, Frank Deford, Rick Reilly, Dan Jenkins, Ed Shrake, Gary Smith, etc. make the game's greatest moments thrilling and heartbreaking.

There's humor and Hollywood, of course, but mostly there's the joy of losing track of time as you read about golf's eras and imagine.

Search inside the book.
