Have you ever wondered what it would be like to visit great clubs such as this magnificent dozen, to play their courses, to change in their locker rooms, have a drink in their bars and mingle with the members? Well, the door is finally open.

"John de St. Jorre has brilliantly brought all these clubs to life," writes Bill Campbell, 1964 US Amateur champion and USGA past president, in his Preface. "His keen powers of observation and description have combined with his insight and literary talent to produce individual case studies, realistic and appealing, so that all these clubs will interest the reader, whether or not he has been there."

"Similarly, Tony Edgeworth's sharp and discerning camera lens," Campbell observes, "has provided a compelling tableau of each club and its members, catching that club's life and suggesting its intangibles."

In much golf photography, the missing ingredient is people. But Edgeworth, an award-winning editorial and advertising photographer, puts the golfers into the golf landscape.

Author Geoffrey Norman, in Forbes FYI, on the golf photography of Anthony Edgeworth:
“...There are real artists out there with the gifts to make the subtle and quixotic joys of golf palpable. Herbert Warren Wind and John Updike and David Owen, for instance, can do it in prose. Anthony Edgeworth...has the touch with photographs.”
