Driving The Green is a classic of golf, but it is much more: a book about the near-impossible process of making something beautiful, traditional, legal, and commercial all at the same time -- a modern golf course. In the tradition of John McPhee and Tracy Kidder, John Strawn's Driving The Green is a brilliant analysis of how a golf course is built and of the people who assemble for its creation. A mustread for any golfer, and indeed for anyone interested in how complex things come to be. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
