Reviews
John Steinbreder is one of the world's most gifted golf travel writers. His eye for detail allows the reader to walk with him, side by side, to the finest destinations around the globe., The art of golf travel writing is harder than it looks. John Steinbreder is a Rory McIlroy at it. Read him and enjoy him. -- John Hopkins, senior correspondent for Global Golf Post, contributor to The Times, and winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award in Journalism from the PGA of America John Steinbreder is one of the world's most gifted golf travel writers. His eye for detail allows the reader to walk with him, side by side, to the finest destinations around the globe. -- Mike Purkey, editor in chief, Global Golf Post, and former president, Golf Writers Association of America I have had the great pleasure of knowing John for many years as he has diligently perfected his craft of enjoying the greatest golf experiences around the world. Importantly, John knows how to appreciate and describe in concise detail why golf travel is so uniquely compelling. The nuanced difference between golf in Turnberry and Tasmania is also a large part of the joy for everything which surrounds the sport. John recognizes that we are all golfers of varying abilities, but the same underlying element sits at the very heart of our passion for the game. -- Gordon Dalgleish, president, PerryGolf Steinbreder, journalist and senior writer for Global Golf Post, kicks up the allure of golf travel writing to another level with his latest book, blending the most interesting locales around the world with the finest courses possible. Gleaned from almost two decades of traveling, he commends golf as "a way of encouraging terrific camaraderie no matter what the locale," stopping along the way to note the succulent roasted lamb in Marrakesh or a specific brew at a Dublin pub while discussing the design and challenges of courses globally. Steinbreder divides the book into two sections, "The Old World," which covers some of the esteemed courses of Scotland, Ireland, and England, including St. Andrews, Ladybank, Scotscraig, Royal Dublin, Island Golf Club, Murvagh, Rosepenna, Rosses Point, Enniscrone, Turnberry, and the lush English Lancashire Coast "museum piece" courses. While he adores Switzerland, which he concludes is "not a leading good destination," his remarks on such exotic locales as the Caribbean, Colombia, Australia, New Zealand, Morocco, and Fiji in "The New World" are much more an instructive travelogue. His critical eye singles out Peeble Beach, Pinehurst, and Sand Hills as among the most favorable of the newer courses. Packed with information and anecdotes, Steinbreder's golf adventures will please any fan of the sport or travel. -- Publishers Weekly, The art of golf travel writing is harder than it looks.

The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.How to chalk talk, by Harlan Tarbell (N° 197064259889)
