Rock Barn Golf and Spa is a special place. Cradled in the curve of the Catawba River, its rolling topography presents a tantalizing preview of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This premier golf course development, boasting two championship courses and an abundance of amenities, makes “living the good life” an everyday reality. Those responsible for creating this distinctive community possess a rare combination of vision and persistence: They are dreamers and they are doers. Two hundred years ago, another remarkable man settled in this area; he too dreamed big and labored long to bring his dreams to fruition. He established a large plantation and from the stones of Lyle's Creek fashioned a splendid rock barn. This impressive structure became a community landmark and is now listed on the National Register of Historical Places. This brief history will examine the origins of the Rock Barn and trace the development of the golf course community that proudly bears its name, Rock Barn Golf and Spa.

Mosts mall tightly-knit Midwestern towns don't deal well with change, and Bent River is no exception. When an arrogant unknown developer acquires a valuable tract of agricultural ground next to the city-owned lake, they don't exactly throw down the welcome mat. Then, he has the audacity to propose a considerable condominium golf course complex, immediately erupting the good people of Bent River into a firestorm of controversy. They can approve major growth in their little community or choose to stay the same in order to maintain the small town heritage they love. Local carpenter, Mayor Jack Cooper, is all for new property taxes and especially a new tournament player's golf course, but only if his constituents give it their blessing. It would put them on the map as a destination and help bring new prosperity to a floundering economy, but at what cost? Jack knows they need change, but his gut tells him their auspicious new benefactor has something to hide. Considering the drama, violence, tragedy, and romance, you have to ask yourself, "Is this our little town?" There is no doubt David is a genuine Heartlander through and through. Growing up in the Midwest he learned early on the value of a good work ethic and a hard day's work. His passion for pounding nails and being creative led him to building over two hundred homes in and around central Iowa for the last thirty years. If you don't catch him on a job site somewhere he can usually be found on the golf course, pounding a defenseless golf ball around with his buddies. David loves to write about his small town experiences and continues to live with his wife in central Iowa.

The Meadowmeer Story is a story of people caring for one another. It's about the land, the people, and the water, and of course, a lot about the sport of golf.There are three threads to the story of Meadowmeer. First, Sam Clarke Sr., his story, and the events that brought him to gaze over those once strawberry-covered meadows one summer day in the mid 1960s. Second, the Koura family and Japanese berry farming on Bainbridge through the first half of the 20th century. And third, golf along with the parallel Meadowmeer community and the Athletic Club.

In golf the playing field is also landscape, where nature and the shaping of it conspire to test athletic prowess. As golf courses move away from the "big business, pristine lawn" approach of recent times, Bradley S. Klein, a leading expert on golf course design and economics, finds much to contemplate, and much to report, in the way these wide-open spaces function as landscapes that inspire us, stimulate our senses, and reveal the special nature of particular places. A meditation on what makes golf courses compelling landscapes, this is also a personal memoir that follows Klein's own unique journey across the golfing terrain, from the Bronx and Long Island suburbia to the American prairie and the Pacific Northwest. Whether discussing Robert Moses and Donald Trump and the making of New York City, or the role of golf in the development of the atomic bomb, or the relevance of Willa Cather to how the game has taken hold in the Nebraska Sandhills, Klein is always looking for the freedom and the meaning of golf's wide-open spaces. And as he searches, he offers a deeply informed and absorbing view of golf courses as cultural markers, linking the game to larger issues of land use, ecology, design, and imagination.

A duffer's odyssey on the public links from Maine to Key West. A golfing everyman takes us on a pilgrimage, playing public golf courses along Route 1 down the east coast of the United States. From his first round with French-Canadian partners amidst the potato fields of northern Maine to his final round against a setting tropical sun in Key West, Charlie Slack chronicles the best and worst of the public-golf experience. Each round introduces a new set of partners and opens a window onto a new locale, whether it's the manicured suburbs of Connecticut, the worn-down urban centers of the Northeast Corridor, or the sun-drenched golfing havens of the South. Here in the land of new beginnings, Charlie Slack lives out every golfer's fantasy, a fresh start and a pristine fairway each and every morning. An utterly charming tale of a quintessentially American journey of discovery.

Photographer David Cannon began his career in sports photography twenty-five years ago and is considered the premier golf photographer in the world. Having played at more than seven hundred golf courses in over fifty countries, Cannon photographs with a true golfer's eye, offering an extraordinary window into some of the world's most celebrated courses—with more than 40 in North America, dozens in Asia and the South Pacific, and several in both Africa and the Middle East. Savor a view from the 11th hole of the incomparable and historic St. Andrews's Old Course bathed in golden afternoon light; glimpse giraffes and elephants from any green at Leopard Creek, South Africa; vicariously experience Pirate's Plank, the harrowing 15th hole at Cape Kidnappers, New Zealand, which is set at the very end of the clifftop fairway surrounded by dramatic 500-foot drops to the ocean; and take in the serene sea view from the signature 18th hole of the very private Seminole Golf Course in Florida. Golf Courses stunningly captures the singular genius and beauty of golf courses. It is a comprehensive collection of the world's best courses by revered designers including Donald Ross, Pete Dye, and Robert Trent Jones, Sr., and such new talent as Steve Smyers and Tom Doak, among many others—all of whom skillfully orchestrate the exceptional union of nature and course design on five continents. This deluxe, limited-edition volume features over two hundred sumptuous color photographs of courses, some of which have never been photographed or published previously, in full spreads and gatefolds—some measuring over five feet in length—and includes a numbered print signed by the photographer. Golf Courses: Fairways of the World will be strictly limited to 5,000 copies.
