In 1867, a group of gentlemen, all members of the Edinburgh Burgess Golfing Society, felt compelled to put together and publish this work in reverent tribute to the sport that they held so dear. The work runs the gamut from silly to sincere; from poetic to prophetic; from simplistic to cathartic. And the highest praise that I may offer this book is this: I am not, nor have I ever been, a golfer. With that being said, I still - inexplicably - enjoyed this work, learned a great deal that I did not know, and managed to cement a connection across time with the men who sent it off into the world, 'Far & True', as they were so fond of saying.
