Abstract/Contents:Profiles the Casa de Campo resort located in the Dominican Republic, designed by Pete Dye. Suggests that in the 1960s, Dye was an "up-and-coming designer," and no other golf course "sparked his imagination or tested his resilience like Casa de Campo." Describes the process of building the course, noting that "300 Dominican laborers assigned to build the course hand-cleared the land with machetes and pulverized the limestone with pick-axes." Briefly profiles Pete Dye, focusing on his career history.
