Book excerpt: Set against the background of the Great Depression, this book presents the life of Ralph Guldahl, who for a brief period in the 1930s was widely recognized as the best golfer in the world. From 1936 to 1940, he won two successive U.S. Opens, one Masters title and three successive Western Opens, held the best scoring average award and was a Ryder Cup player with a 100 percent record. After this memorable run, he "lost his game" and almost disappeared from view. This biography is the first to trace the rise and decline of his career and answer the question: "What happened to Ralph Guldahl?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life's Pilgrimage: Introd, by Lord Burnham Art of printing - since Fust and Gutenberg first used type to make their impressions - was the application of steam to the printing machine, and that was the triumph of a journalist. In 1814 Mr. John Walter, of the Times, announced, with justifiable flourish of trumpets, that he was working his machine by steam. Here are his words: It is done with a variety and simul taneousness of movement that not less than sheets are impressed in one hour. Though we can nowadays print far more sheets of much larger newspapers in a minute than Mr. Walter could in an hour, this was an epoch-making advance. In the days and nights upon which I am looking back a large amount, even of newspaper printing, was done by manual machinery, the motive power being supplied by two men turning a wheel. To-day in all large establishments we have engines of extraordinary horse-power, and the type itself set by machinery.

Download or read book American Golf in the Great Depression written by Kevin Kenny and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of professional golf during the Great Depression begins with a look at the "roaring 1920s" and how the game developed during this exciting decade. What a contrast to the Depression era--in which golf at all levels suffered but survived. The Depression years in general are covered and then the professional tour between 1931 and 1940 is examined in detail--the administrators (those who sold the tour to sponsors, the media and the public) and the many wonderful golfers. Much of this is set against the background of how difficult life was for most Americans. The book looks briefly at the post-Depression years (when the U.S. entered World War II) and how the top players fared. Despite the economic difficulties of the era, professional golf survived--largely due to the efforts of players and administrators, not all of whom have been sufficiently recognized by the game and its historians.
