Title: Excellent book aided by original source documents
Product review: Over the years many untrue articles have appeared concerning Augusta National Golf Club and The Masters. This was probably due to the very private nature of the club which I'm sure rubs some people the wrong way. So to get back at this secret rich man's club, some journalists made up stories and repeated them for years. Now that the archives have finally been opened we are better able to judge the facts. Mr. Owen clears up many of these past inaccuracies in the last third of the book. He also shows us just how "touch and go" the whole enterprise was in the early years. The photographs and maps are worth the price alone and the history of the club is interesting to read. If you have ever been to Augusta you understand what the word "perfection" really means. This book is similar to Curt Sampson's "Hogan" in that it finally dispels much of the nonsense that has been written about these two remarkable gentlemen.
