Emerald Fairways and Foam-Flecked Seas: A Golfer's Pilgrimage to the Courses of Ireland

New, perfect, great read.

Somewhat disappointed that the book was not as comprehensive a guide to golfing in Ireland as I had expected.

I was looking for a quick guide, not a story

excellent book

Quality product.

I don't think it's the best book by this author but it does give you an insight into a lot of the major courses in Ireland.

James Finegan's three volumes guides to golf in Scotland, Ireland and England are literate and engrossing. I can't imagine a golfing trip to the UK or Ireland without these guides.

Golf in the Kingdom comes to life with real information.My golfing buddy and I are in the planning stages of a trip to either Ireland or Scotland. If you appreciate humorous, passionate writing, then this is the book. You can feel the pace of play and exciting in his words. You can also feel his appreciation for the joy of the trip in his conversations with golf pro's, barkeeps, hotel owners.After reading this joyful book, you'll be hooked on travelling just like he has, same courses, same restaurants and inns.Makes a wonderful gift for golfers who fully appreciate the game of golf. Between this and the Scotland book, I think that I've given away seven copies.

An interesting review of Irish golfing venues. Great for planning a trip.

The update at the end of the book was very useful, as I had read the original book some years ago.
