The Little Book of Golf

The bestselling Little Book of Golf also charts the history of the game and includes all great players from Great Triumvirate of Harry Vardon, JH Taylor and James Braid to America's Ben Hogan, Sam Snead and Byron Nelson. There are special profiles on the Big Three of Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Arnold Palmer, as well as Europe's Famous Five: Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Sandy Lyle, Bernhard Langer and Ian Woosnam.

Of course, no history of golf book would be complete without a profile on Tiger Woods, who has dominated the game for the past decade and showed he was back to his brilliant best at last year's Ryder Cup.
