Product Description

Review

'an extraordinary book' THE OBSERVER 'Tobert displays genuine erudition on such topics as the history of the cathedral and university and, of course, the tricky business of playing the Old Course itself'. THE SCOTSMAN 'A must-have... crammed with all the titbits no lover of the Old Course should be without... combines history, humour and anecdote' BUNKERED 'ideal reading for all those wishing to expand their knowledge beyond the bounds of the fairway ... will find wide appeal among golfers and non-golfers, locals and visitors alike' ST ANDREWS CITIZEN

Product Description

An insider's guide to golfing in St Andrews, this book provides information on the course and the history of the game. It looks at the history of the town, with parallels drawn between the early pilgrims to St Andrews and the post-reformation "pilgrims" to the links, and also contains tourist information about where to stay, where to eat, and what to see and do in the area.

4.0 out of 5 stars St. Andrews answer to Bill Bryson !, 5 Jul 2000

By A Customer

It has always surprised me that given its long ancient history.It has taken this long for somebody to take up the challenge and write a witty, informative and highly readable book about St. Andrews - its not just about golf! Tobert has filled the role wonderfuly and will hopefuly entice the tourist or 'New Pilgrim' to visit the town's other jewels. Yes there is life off the links, but beware its traffic wardens are infamous and resistence is futile! Congratulations to Tobert for accepting the challenge and at last St. Andrews has a local answer to Bill Bryson and James Dodson.

5.0 out of 5 stars Studied at St Andrews/Love Golf or Scotland? READ THIS BOOK!, 6 Jun 2003

By	"themightyfish" - See all my reviews

The best book about St Andrews by someone who lives here. It's delighted residents of the town like myself, and people from further afield. If you are planning on a visit to the town, maybe to play on the famous Old Course, get a copy of this book and you'll enjoy your visit even more. It's great on golf, but not everyone (myself included) like the sport as much as the R&A obsessives - and the merit of this book is how much further than golf this book takes you. You will get a potted history of all the funny and interesting stuff that's happened in this perfect little city over the ages. A must have!
