?Golfers wanting to know the colourful stories behind names like
Alcatraz, Biarritz, Cleopatra, Dell, Eden, Postage Stamp, and Redan
can now turn to the only book ever devoted exclusively to the
par-three hole. In Golf's Finest Par Threes Tony Roberts and
Michael Bartlett have assembled what they call a "an exemplary
collection of the most spectacular, historic, challenging, and
unusual one-shot holes on the planet." The heart of the book is the
authors' list of the 100 greatest par threes in the world, chosen
from thousands they've seen during more than 30 years profiling and
photographing golf courses. These are designated as gold and
silver, and arranged by design and geographical categories such as
links, island and peninsula, blind, drop shot, and more. Striking
photography and fact-filled profiles combine to reveal the distinct
character of each hole. Golf's Finest Par Threes also explains how
the greatest course designers - notably, Macdonald, Colt,
Tillinghast, MacKenzie, Ross, Thomas, Jones, Fazio, Nicklaus, Dye,
and Doak - have created par threes. A closing section offers new
perspectives on the one-shot hole: "Best Sets" and "Out-of-the-Box"
threes, historic shots on par threes, and more. Golf's Finest Par
Threes is a beautifully packaged tour of golf's great short holes,
one guaranteed to inform, entertain, and provoke vigorous debate
about what makes a par three superior and memorable.
