Peter N. Lewis. Hobbs & McEwan, 1995.

The Dawn of Professional Golf provides the first detailed study of the early years of the professional "tour". Three men dominated British Golf between 1894 and 1914: Harry Vardon, James Braid and J.H.Taylor. Their heyday coincides with the unprecedented growth of the game and the transformation of the professional sport. This book tells the fascinating and absorbing story of those years.

The Dawn of Professional Golf: The Genesis of the European Tour 1894-1914 is available from the Museum, priced £25.00 (plus postage and packing if mail order).
