Description

There is no course in the United States that can match the history and beauty of Pebble Beach. Pebble Beach Golf Links: The Official History is one of the most spectacular golf books ever published, with hundreds of photographs outlining the magical beauty that nature has provided. It is simply, the favorite golf course of Jack Nicklaus. This history not only showcases the stunning photography of Ansel Adams' inspired, Joanne Dost, but also contains a historical collection of black and white photographs that capture the past great championships and champions. Jones, Hogan, Palmer, Nicklaus, and Watson have competed there, and the text keenly weaves their stories with those of the Hollywood celebrities -- Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Elizabeth Taylor, Rita Hayworth, and Clark Gable -- who flocked to this favorite of playgrounds for the rich and famous, and golfers around the world. A celebration of one of the most beautiful places on earth, Pebble Beach Golf Links chronicles the over 80 years of spectacular golf at the greatest meeting of land and water.
