The Village of Pinehurst, with its historic inns, classic architecture, legendary golf courses, leisurely lifestyle and other outdoor activities, has a mythical healing power. The famous Scottish golf professional Tommy Armour said in 1935, "I've seen strangers, jaded and dull, come to Pinehurst and after a few days be changed into entirely delightful fellows." The charm and character of the cradle of American golf hold true today as Pinehurst remains a place where golf and good times reign supreme. Almost 100 years ago, when Americans began taking to the road in ever-growing numbers in search of spectacular vacation destinations, Pinehurst, like no other place, made golf the most rapidly growing pastime of the day. With many never-before-published photographs from Tufts Archives, Pinehurst: Golf, History, and the Good Life celebrates the community's place in golf's Golden Age. Book jacket.
