St Andrews And Golf, Illustrated By Arthur Weaver
St Andrews and Golf - Illustrated by Arthur Weaver.
A beautifully produced tribute to the spiritual home of golf, the golf book - St Andrews and Golf by Morton W. Olman and John M. Olman, with artwork by renowned golf artist Arthur Weaver, captures the timeless charm and history of the game's birthplace.
This first edition, published in 1995, is a hardbound volume with its original dust jacket, featuring a memorable image of Nick Faldo celebrating his 1990 Open Championship victory on the Old Course's 18th green. Spanning 207 pages, the book explores The Town, The Golf, and The Royal & Ancient Golf Club through a blend of art, history, and storytelling.
Weaver's exquisite illustrations-hundreds of them-offer an artist's-eye view of St Andrews' five centuries of golfing heritage, portraying legendary players, historic tournaments, and the enduring allure of the "Auld Grey Toun." Interwoven among the images are essays and reflections from 24 notable contributors, including Open and Amateur Champions, distinguished writers, and golf luminaries, adding depth and perspective to this celebration of the game.
Comprehensive, elegant, and deeply informative, St Andrews and Golf is both a collector's essential and a stunning coffee-table centrepiece. It invites readers to discover why more famous golfers have walked the Old Course than any other fairway in the world - making it a must-have addition to any serious golf library.
