Rick Lipsey returned from a vacation with an unusual job offer. After playing a few rounds at Bhutan's Royal Thimphu Golf Club, one of the members asked if he'd consider becoming the kingdom's golf pro. "Sure, I'd love to move to Bhutan," Lipsey flippantly responded. Next thing you know, he, his wife, and their infant daughter are boarding a plane for this remote Himalayan country. With one foot in the ancient world and the other in the twenty-first century, Bhutan is working to successfully meld the old and the new, from subsistence farming and religious festivals to the Internet and World Wrestling Entertainment. In Golfing on the Roof of the World, Rick sets great golf travel writing against the bigger political story of Bhutan's entrance to the modern world. Not only does he teach and play golf in the shadow of the world's tallest peaks, but he also comes to understand the seismic shifts in store for the last Buddhist kingdom where peace and spiritual prosperity have abounded, and the national standard for measuring success is Gross National Happiness.

The 19th Hole examines the design of many of the world's great golf clubhouses. It's part of the IMAGES series of titles that looks exclusively at world-best practice in architecture. The book is a photographic feast of the often-sumptuous clubhouse fit-outs that accompanies golfing at these illustrious courses. This book is endorsed by golf legend Jack Nicklaus, who names author Richard Diedrich in his foreword as possibly the only person he has ever met who truly understands the synergy that must coexist between golf courses and their clubhouses. Nicklaus and Diedrich paired up more than 25 years ago to design many of the world's newest and most prestigious clubs. Many of the world's most established and legendary courses are featured, including the Augusta National Golf Club, the Winged Foot Golf Club and the Congressional Country Club, to name a few. What makes this book outstanding, however, is its presentation of many new clubs that are destined to rank among the world's legendary clubs. These include 40 recently designed and built clubs in the United States that set the standard for designing clubs around the world, which is appropriate when it is considered that more than half of the world's 32,000 golf courses can be found within the United States.

The American Senior Golf Association consisted of 900 men. Twenty four men are selected annually for the International Team. One year the team plays the Europeans for the King Leopold Cup, the next year they play the Japanese for the Prince Nabashima-Quittner Trophy. Managing 24 men and their wives and the golf matches is more than one man can handle. Fortunately I had four men who helped me 'stay the course' during my years as Captain from 1985 - 1993. 'This book will greatly enrich your love for the game of golf as well as your love for the Lord Jesus Christ. I share both of these loves with Curtis. Hopefully this book will stir you to use the game of golf to spread God's love to all those you come in contact with. It contains some wonderful stories which will bless you as they have me.' -Wally Armstrong, PGA Professional
