This is kind of vague, but there was a "coffee table" pictorial/text type of book published in the last year or so which specifically addresses The Old Course at St. Andrews. The Golf Shop in the financial district of Boston may have it. Also, you could contact "The Classics of Golf" in Norwalk, Ct. I know Herbert Warren Wind did an article in one of his books on Bobby Jones return to St. Andrews which had a lot of data. If you looked up Old Tom Morris, Young Tom Morris, Alan Robertson and perhaps Laurie Auchterlonie you'd getmore info. Robert Browning's "The History of Golf" from the Classics of Golf publishers is sure to have material on St. Andrews. As a last resort, you could contact The Royal and Ancient golf Headquarters in St. Andrews. --Jack | |||||

Nevada Bobs had some books which included some golf history. Royal Bookstores and Barnes and Noble would have something, I am sure. |
