Over a career spanning the early 1900s to the late 1940s, no golf course architect designed more celebrated layouts-- or earned greater reverence-- than Donald J. Ross. Born in Dornoch in 1872, Ross honed his craft under Old Tom Morris in St Andrews before emigrating to the United States. A teaching role in Boston led to a winter position at Pinehurst Resort-- and the launch of a legendary design career. Ross's influence and legacy is clear across the United States today, and in the past two decades, many courses and clubs designed by Ross have undertaken the important work of renovating and restoring Ross's work, to bring its greatest features back to life. Though widely known, Ross's enduring impact on the game is often under-appreciated. 25 years ago, Bradley S. Klein published Discovering Donald Ross, and it quickly became the definitive and authoritative book on the subject. This award-winning biography-- recipient of the Herbert Warren Wind Book Award-- offers a compelling introduction to his life, work, and legacy, along with a postscript exploring the modern revival of classic course design. In this significantly updated and expanded 25th anniversary edition, Brad Klein delivers a richly detailed portrait of this influential figure, illustrated with rare drawings, maps, and photographs from many of Ross's most iconic courses, including Oakland Hills Country Club, Oak Hill Country Club, Seminole Golf Club, and Pinehurst No. 2. With new photos, updated text, and new chapters on recent restorations and renovations, Re-Discovering Donald Ross will continue to be the most definitive work on Donald Ross for another generation to come.
