So excited for this, I have read this book multiple times. When I have had access to it. I consider it probably the gold standard in architectural history. As it's approachable but yet wonderfully deep.


I wish that George had continued to be here to see the blossoming of the appreciation for C.B.'s work and the recreation of the Lido. Also selfishly it might have given him time to complete his book on C.B's protege Seth Raynor. Which continues to be one of the great what ifs for me in the world of golf architectural literary cannon.

Even though I already own a copy of the original, I went ahead and bought another copy of the new edition. Happy to support the re-print.

Likewise. I can loan the second edition out without making the loanee sign a form.  ;D  Looking forward to it.

Really glad this is being reprinted. I had an extra copy that I gave to a friend, and now I'm able to have a backup.

I only had one copy of it myself. 


Fortunately I knew the copyright holder, so we could do the reprint.
