The Clicking of Cuthbert

"This book marks an epoch in my literary career. It is written in blood. It is the outpouring of a soul as deeply seared by Fate's unkindness as the pretty on the dog-leg hole of the second nine was ever seared by my iron. It is the work of a very nearly desperate man, an eighteen-handicap man who has got to look extremely slippy if he doesn't want to find himself in the twenties again." A collection of tales of the fine and ancient sport of golf, including "The Clicking of Cuthbert," "A Woman Is Only a Woman," "A Mixed Threesome," "Sundered Hearts," "The Salvation of George Mackintosh," "Ordeal by Golf," "The Long Hole," "The Heel of Achilles," "The Rough Stuff," and "The Coming of Gowf."
