Our very own Adam Lawrence has apparently just finished his long awaited biography of Harry Colt.


I’m sure it will merit a place among the best 10 golf books written in 2022.

Thanks. It's not a biography, sounds like more of a rambling memoir-that was his thing.

The Long Golden Afternoon by Stephen Proctor is terrific.  It covers a period of golf (amateur and professional competitions) about which I knew little.  I also really liked his book Monarch of the Green, about Young Tommy.

I am looking forward to reading Jim Hartsell's When Revelation Comes as soon as my copy arrives.  Jim is a fascinating person, who has gone through a lot, including playing seemingly every unknown course in Scotland.
