This leather-bound second edition book was published by Longmans, Green in London as part of a larger series dedicated to sports called The Badminton Library of Sports and Pastimes. The Golf title is the most sought after of all the books in the series. What's confusing is the badminton in the title, which refers to Badminton Estate in Gloucestershire in England. The editor was the Duke of Beaufort who was on the Badminton Estate and has nothing to do with the series. The writer, Horace Hutchinson was associated with St. Andrew's and had great impact on the game of golf. Fine condition, minor wear in the binding and very minor foxing throughout.
