Hardcover, [EAN: 9781164275527], Kessinger Publishing, English, English, English, Kessinger Publishing, Book, Kessinger Publishing, Kessinger Publishing, The biggest marquee name in golf at the turn of the 20th century, Vardon was the sport's first transatlantic superstar. He won a record six British Opens as well as the 1900 U.S. Open; of equal importance, his style of play and study of the swing changed golf's fundamentals. In 1922, he codified his wisdom in The Gist of Golf, the first instructional volume penned by a playing idol. As breezy as an afternoon on the links, most of it feels dated when placed beside today's instructionals--but as a cultural artefact it's as inviting as a short uphill putt with no break in it. The photos of Vardon swinging in all his tweedy glory are alone worth the greens fees, and much of his thinking about the game will be valid as long as golf's played. --Jeff Silverman, 1025612, Subjects, 349777011, Antiquarian, Rare & Collectable, 91, Art, Architecture & Photography, 51, Audio Cassettes, 267859, Audio CDs, 67, Biography, 68, Business, Finance & Law, 507848, Calendars, Diaries, Annuals & More, 69, Children's Books, 274081, Comics & Graphic Novels, 71, Computing & Internet, 72, Crime, Thrillers & Mystery, 637262, e-Books, 279254, Fantasy, 62, Fiction, 66, Food & Drink, 275835, Gay & Lesbian, 74, Health, Family & Lifestyle, 65, History, 64, Home & Garden, 63, Horror, 89, Humour, 275738, Languages, 61, Mind, Body & Spirit, 73, Music, Stage & Screen, 275389, Poetry, Drama & Criticism, 59, Reference, 58, Religion & Spirituality, 88, Romance, 57, Science & Nature, 279292, Science Fiction, 564334, Scientific, Technical & Medical, 60, Society, Politics & Philosophy, 55, Sports, Hobbies & Games, 13384091, Study Books, 83, Travel & Holiday, 266239, Books, 400530011, English, 400529011, Language (feature_browse-bin), 365481011, Refinements, 266239, Books, 492563011, Hardcover, 492562011, Format (binding_browse-bin), 365481011, Refinements, 266239, Books, 182018031, Regular Size, 182016031, Font Size (format_browse-bin), 365481011, Refinements, 266239, Books<
