For over 500 years, golfers have tried to express what makes the game so special. There have been novels, short stories, essays, coffee table photo books and collections of art. But never has there been a book like this. Here, in Golf Poems, is an enchanting collection of poetry that touches on the fundamental feelings, fears, hopes, aspirations and thoughts that every true golfer knows and appreciates. You will be uplifted by The Spirit of Golf; delighted by Up Against A Kid; moved by Guardians of the Game; and you will also travel vicariously to St. Andrews, Pebble Beach and Bandon Dunes to experience what makes those places so special.Golf Poems is meant to be a little book that a golfer can put in his or her pocket and enjoy by the fireside, at the bar in the clubhouse, or while walking down the fairway. With photographs accompanying the verses, the reader will have an experience that lifts the words off the page and provides a fuller, deeper meaning.Golf Poems does not replace other books, but adds to the lore and mystique that is golf itself. It is a wonderful gift for any golfer. Many of these verses - or parts of them - make for memorable toasts wherever golfers gather to celebrate the game they love so much.

Think back to the first time you stepped onto a golf course. Surely you had some interest in the game before you started to play, but it's only in feeling the club in your hand and watching the ball soar high above you that you are enraptured. Something about that first time makes you fall in love. If you remember that captivating moment, then this collection is for you! Golfer and poet Jim Kintner distills forty years of golf matches into lyrical, fun-loving verse in these sixty poems and forty illustrations. In one poem, a boy receives a set of golf clubs from his father. At first he's disappointed, only to discover a great love for the green as he hits his first shot. In another, a golfer is stuck with a partner from hell-literally. The devil himself shows up on the course with a thirty-six handicap! With odes to Bobby Jones and Horton Smith, among others, Kintner also pays homage to the golfing greats. Whether it's the yips or an albatross; a pitch, lob, and flop; or even a chip, chunk, and skull, Kintner takes the terminology of the game and elevates it to an art form.

The timeless humor contained in this book first published in 1898, and its concern with the ever-rising popularity of golfing prompted its current reprinting. The distinctive signature of A.B. Frost on a cartoon or painting is the cause of much excitement at today's art exhibits and more so when it makes a rare appearance at an auction. Original works of this well-known artist are scarce and first editions of the 89 books he illustrated during his brilliant career are fast becoming collectors' items. Frost's biggest contribution to the world in giving visual realization to characters in a book is his unforgettable drawings of Bryer Rabbit and Uncle Remus (Uncle Remus and his Friends by Joel Chandler Harris). He has also illustrated the works of such notable authors as Charles Dickens (The Pickwick Papers), Mark Twain (Tom Sawyer Abroad, Tom Sawyer Detective and other Stories), former U.S . President Theodore Roosevelt (The Wilderness Hunter), and Lewis Carroll (Rhyme? And Reason?). Works by Frost have also appeared in Harpers, Scribners, Colliers, Century, and Puck magazines. A classic of American humor, this book will be sure to entertain modern readers as well.
