Excerpt from The Art of Golf
I thought at a first reading that the Badminton volume must be challenged and fought. The long and keen but discursive and civil war which I 'forecast' was only seen in another light after I had looked up my weapons, examined some of their points, sharpened my wits, etc. Etc. Only then did the antagonism turn out to be, as I venture to h0pe, for the most part in non-essentials.
