Fifty Years of Golf by Horace G. Hutchinson. Account of the rise in popularity of golf in England, first published in 1914. According to the Preface: "I agreed to the suggestion that I should write these reminiscences, mainly because it seems to me that circumstances have thrown my life along such lines that I really have been more than any other man at the centre of the growth of golf--a growth out of nothingness in England, and of relative littleness in Scotland, fifty years ago, to its present condition of a fact of real national importance. I saw all the beginnings, at Westward Ho! of the new life of English golf." I agreed to the suggestion that I should write these reminiscences, mainly because it seems to me that circumstances have thrown my life along such lines that I really have been more than any other man at the centre of the growth of golf-a growth out of nothingness in England, and of relative littleness in Scotland, fifty years ago.
