About the Author

Peter Gammond's qualifications to write a book about golf could quite easily be questioned. Born not far from a golf course, he did not strike a ball in earnest until invited to play in Oxford in 1943. The very first ball he hit went straight down the fairway and he decided there and then to take up the game. The second, third and subsequent hits made him reverse this decision; and it was not until 1962 that he again approached golf. He joined a Surrey golf club that year along with his friend Alf. It was only Alf's constant encouragement (by always playing rather worse than he did) that has kept him at the game ever since.
