One of the greatest and most beloved golf books ever written is triumphantly back in print, with a new introduction by Golf in the Kingdom author Michael Murphy, a new afterword, and never-before-seen photographs.

Thirty years (and counting!) after publication, To the Linksland still enthralls readers who pick it up for the first timeor return to the book for the sheer pleasure of it.

In 1991, Michael Bamberger, a newspaper sportswriter, gave up his apartment, took a leave of absence from his job and his life, and, joined by his newlywed wife, set off to explore the wide world of golf. Bambergers first step in this madcap golfing adventure was to become a caddie on the European golf tour, where he encountered the games most dynamic players up close and personal, including golfs greatest artist, Seve Ballesteros. Crisscrossing the Continent with his bride, Bamberger caddied for a true original, Peter Teravainen, a Yale-educated golfer with a workingmans spirit and a knack for making brilliant, on-the-spot observations about the game (Good shots must come in groups of two). Over the course of one unforgettable year, Bamberger caddied in the national championships of Portugal, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Ireland, and, finally, Scotland, golfs ancestral home. Once there, Bamberger fell under the spell of one of golfs great teachers and thinkers, John Stark.

To the Linksland is the captivating memoir of Bambergers golfing pilgrimage/extended honeymoon. From an all-night caddie bus on the back roads of southern Europe to Starks secret six-hole course in the Scottish Highlands, Bamberger takes you on a journey into the heart of golf. This thirtieth-anniversary edition of Bambergers classic, lyrical tale of discovery is bookended with a new introduction by Michael Murphy and a new afterword by Bamberger, with a trove of new photographs in between. Gloriously back in print, To the Linksland is a great book for your golfing soul (Golf Monthly).
