This handsome leather-bound golf book brings together remarkable courses from around the world, with a focus on the extremes, quirks, settings, and stories that make them memorable.

It covers courses from the highest in La Paz, Bolivia, to the lowest in Death Valley, USA, and from the most northerly in the Arctic Circle to the most southerly in Tierra del Fuego.

The revised and updated edition adds new courses including Ardfin, Blue Lakes, and Winston Links.

The details are often as interesting as the golf itself, from an 18th green across the River Lea served by electric ferry to an LA course with its own funicular railway.

Other examples include Idaho’s floating golf hole, where both the pin position and the distance from shore can change, and the Fuego Maya course in Guatemala, where players line up a drive on an active volcano.

The book also looks at courses shaped by history and landscape, including sites with neolithic standing stones in Scotland, Roman roads in England, ruined medieval castles in Wales, old temples in Delhi, and a UNESCO World Heritage bridge linking the 9th and 10th at Angkor Wat.

Classic courses such as St Andrews, Carnoustie, Royal St George, and Westward Ho! sit alongside desert courses in Nevada and Arizona, Hawaiian courses edged by black lava flows, and remote Scottish links including the Machrie Hotel on Islay and the Isle of Barra.

This edition is bound in emerald bonded leather by Graphic Image, giving the book a more substantial, gift-ready feel than a standard golf title.
