Abstract/Contents:Discusses the potential role of art in golf architecture, stating that "courses constructed with no higher end than merely to create playgrounds around which one may strike a ball present the golfer with little more than a landscape brutalized with the ideas of some other golfer." Suggests that "golf architecture is not an art of representation; it is, essentially, an art of interpretation. And an interpretive art allows freedom to fancy only through obedience to the law which dominates its medium."
