Golf Course Development and Real Estate

This book was written by Muirhead and Rando

I have been looking for this book everywhere.  It is now out of print and would be most grateful if there is anyone that has a copy and would like to sell it.

I have tried ebay and amazon and a few other sites but with no luck.

Cheers,

Brian.

I've had a lot of luck buying out-of-print books on Barnes and Noble's website.  I think Barnes and Noble maintains a database of out-of-print books from independent dealers.

Brian,
Try this.

p.s. I've tried a couple of different ways to get the total link highlighted and cannot. You will have to copy it to a new page. Let me know if it doesn't work for you.

bkatona,

I checked out the website a while ago and I think the name of the book has been changed to

Golf Course Development in Residential Communities

The content list is nearly the same but the wording just slightly changed.  I receive my copy tomorrow.  I will let everyone know if it is the same as Muirhead and Rando's book as I have a library copy of the book out now.

Brian,

I have both copies, and the new book has much the same content, expanded into other areas, and with newer examples.  Probably a better book overall, but it would be worth finding the original as well.
