Golf's All-Time Firsts, Mosts, Leasts, and a Few Nevers cover

Here is the ultimate golf reference book, meant to feed golfers’ insatiable hunger for the statistics and trivia of their game. This book answers such burning questions as who broke the most clubs during a single temper tantrum (Lefty Stackhouse, 14) and the rationale behind 18 holes (it was completely arbitrary). From the sublime to the ridiculous, these fun facts will thoroughly entertain from tee to green.

Leave it to the unsinkable Barkow to come up with a lighter-than-air collection of the game's trivia that seamlessly floats from the esoteric to the essential. -- Golf.com
Golf's All-Time Firsts, Mosts, Leasts, and a Few Nevers will prepare you to win any bar bet you'll ever enter about golf.

Barkow has included lesser-known and obscure nuggets and oddities. . . . For true trivia fans, the book is a goldmine. -- Les Schupak * The Met Golfer *
“A…title that captures every aspect of this enjoyable compilation of statistics and little-known facts about the game of golf” “Barkow is no stranger to the golf industry. He’s written for Golf Digest, Gold World, Links Magazinem Golf Tips Magazine, and a host of other publications. He’s published a dozen golf related books.” “In the first 173 pages of Golf’s all-time Firsts Barkow digs deep into the record books to come up with some interesting facts.” “Readers could spend hours sitting at the 19th hold with Al Barkow’s interesting read. In addition, the last few pages of the book contain a personal record area for the book;s owner. You too can record your personal firsts, mosts, leasts, and nevers.” * RV Life *
