Golf

Golf has a long history, an unusual scoring system and a vocabulary of its own, all of which this illustrated reference sets out for younger readers. Pallabi B. Tomar covers the origins of the game, its basic rules, the equipment a player carries, the major tournaments and the skills the sport demands. Photographs and short explanatory blocks keep the pages readable for children working through it alone, and the structure lets a reader dip in rather than start at page one. The result serves both a curious child and a beginner of any age wanting the outline of the game. Inside this volume: • Background on how the game developed • Plain explanations of rules and scoring terms • A run through clubs and other equipment • Notes on major tournaments and playing skills Suited to children interested in sport and to school and library collections, published by Pegasus and found at Boipoka.
