I think that's GOLF ARCHITECTURE, Nick. ECONOMY IN COURSE CONSTRUCTION AND GREEN-KEEPING is the subtitle.

That was his little green book from 1920. Looks like they are finally re-releasing it. It was republished at one time by Classics of Golf, but even that version became rare.

Lots of it is repeated in Spirit of St. Andrews

A good golf course is an assett to a nation. Those who harangue about land being diverted from agriculture and used for golf have little sense of proportion. Comparing the amount of land utilised for golf with the large amount devoted to agriculture, we ger infinitely more value out of the former than the later. We all eat too much.

The Good Doctor's thoughts remain relevant today.  Personally, I started Adkins a couple of weeks ago in preparation for the KPIII.
