Scotland's Golf in Days of Steam is a travel book with a difference. Transporting the reader to a bygone era, it tells the remarkable story of how the railways came to play such a vital role in the development of golf in Scotland. The burgeoning railways, eager to promote Scotland as a veritable golfer's paradise, built lavish hotels, designed stunning golf courses and one company even went so far as to provide a clubhouse. The heroes of this world include Tom Morris (father and son), Macdonald Smith, George Duncan and Joyce Wethered among others. Through anecdote and recollection Ian Nader recaptures the romance and style of the period; journey with him as he investigates the legacy left by the railways at courses such as Brora, Gleneagles, Nairn, St Andrews, Tain, Turnberry, Western Gailes and many more; encompassing some of the most awe-inspiring golfing greens in Scotland.
