GOLFLAND SCOTLAND describes each one of Scotland's 565 golf courses. It is the detailed, definitive guide to the country's courses. It's the first book of its kind in more than a decade, an ambitious celebration of Scotland's embarrassment of golfing riches. Useful and informative, it is a practical reference work. Beautifully designed, with stunning photography by David Cannon, it is also a highly desirable gift. GOLFLAND is an appropriate name for a book about the courses of Scotland, the country recognised as the birthplace of the game. Scotland is a mecca for golf tourists worldwide, who come to play its most celebrated courses, such as Carnoustie, Muirfield and the historic links of St Andrews. Yet for all of Scotland's most distinguished courses, like those which host The Open, there are hundreds of others, some known to aficionados, some so far-flung as to be familiar to only a few. GOLFLAND SCOTLAND records and celebrates them all. If you are planning a trip to Scotland or simply want to explore the richness of the country's golfing landscape, GOLFLAND SCOTLAND is essential. For dreaming about some future game, or else remembering one played long ago, it is equally invaluable. GOLFLAND SCOTLAND will answer almost all the questions you might have about Scottish golf courses. GOLFLAND SCOTLAND is also the answer to a commonly asked question: what is the perfect gift for the golfer in my life?
