    Cuthbert Banks was young, handsome, and plus four on the Wood Hills links, but he could make no impression on the soulful girl of his heart until Vladimir Brusiloff, the eminent Russian novelist, kissed him on both cheeks before the entire Literary Society; after which Adeline's attitude changed from scorn to adoration. Cuthbert is not the only hero: there are golfers of every kind, from haughty scratch players to those who are content with a modest one hundred and twenty for the round.

    "Golf is the Great Mystery. Like some capricious goddess, it bestows favors with what would appear an almost fat-headed lack of method and discrimination." These words, uttered by "The Oldest Member, " set the stage for a romp around the greens only Wodehouse could have conjured up. In nine stories Wodehouse describes not only the fates of the goofs who have allowed golf "to eat into their souls like some malignant growth" but also the impact of the so-called game on courtship, friendship, and business relationships. In addition to the title story, this volume includes "High Stakes, " "The Magic Plus Fours, " and "Rodney Fails to Qualify."
