It may be the most quintessential of all Scottish golf clubs in that it was founded by a distillery owner, thus combining Scotland's two most important contributions to the world! Includes some very interesting black and white photographs of early matches played at Machrie including Vardon, Taylor and Braid in 1907. This book was commissioned for the clubs centenary, which it celebrated in 1991. Islay Golf Club's motto is: "Keep Your Temper". We specialize in golf books.
