Golf for Beginning Players provides solid advice on swing, position and feel that is more sensible that the lion's share of gimmickry peddled in contemporary golf literature. The guide was published in 1938 and so contains a fair amount of lost golf jargon. From old club sizes ("Brassie" and "Mashie") to forgotten scoring jargon. Did you know a match is said to be at "dormie" when one side is as many holes ahead as there are holes left to play? This is a short, helpful and inexpensive addition for any golfer's library.
