Golf - An Unofficial and Unauthorized History of the Worl (Paperback)

- An ingenious mix of facts and flights of fancy: The history of golf begins in 732 AD, when a relic of St. Andrew--patron saint of Scotland and of golf--was found wearing a copper arthritis bracelet. And who could forget 1492, when Christopher Columbus discovered the birthplace of Tiger Woods. "Golf" is the perfect gift for the serious--and not so serious--golfer. .
- Bestselling humorist: Henry Beard has authored or coauthored ten parodies, five of which are "New York Times" bestsellers, as well as more than two dozen other humor books, including "French for Cats" and "The Official Politically Correct Dictionary" . .
- Golf is Beard's game: In a "New York Times" interview, Beard once said "It's the most insidious of sports because once in a while you have a day where you do extraordinarily well and you think you can do very well--and you can't. It's just a tease. Even a Zen monk would be driven crazy by golf." Beard has written seven other golf humor books, including "Golfing: The Duffer's Dictionary" and "The Official Rules of Bad Golf" ..
