Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Golf for Beginners and Others
When I get very old and feeble and my joints creak and I begin to find croquet too strenuous a pastime, then I may take up golf. This was my answer to the first invitation I had to play this game. I felt that to ask me to take up a game suitable only for mollycoddles, as it then seemed to me, was asking too much; I, who had been intensely interested in athletic sports ever since I could remember - baseball, football, row ing and what not.
I can remember how my lip curled with disdain when I saw the red coats and knickerbockers.
