| Warning | |
| Comment | It's not a "golf history" book. It's an illustrated prayer book, Called a "golf book" because on the bottom of page 1 is a scene of men playing golf (or colf, the Flemish counterpart). The bottom of page 7 is cut off in the website so I couldn't see the game played. [ba] Edit with form to add a comment |
