Hey Guys, welcome back to the Hole In One Golf Podcast, I’m your host Jack Bull. Thanks very much for listening! In this episode, I’m joined by the renowned American Author & Golf Historian Stephen Proctor. Stephen has been described by the famous St. Andrews Golf Historian Roger Mc Stravick, as “The Bernard Darwin of our Times” which is quite the compliment. Stephen’s first book- “Monarch of the Green: Young Tom Morris Pioneer of the Modern Game” published by Birlinn in Edinburgh, Scotland, has been greatly received and read around the World. His new Book “The Long Golden Afternoon, Golf’s Age Of Glory 1864- 1914” is very hotly anticipated and will be launched by Stephen in Edinburgh and St. Andrews in June, just before the 150th playing of the Open in July at the home of Golf St. Andrews:-

Thus, the timing of the book launch (and this podcast!) is absolutely impeccable.

Stephen tells me more about his books and his views on the history of the game and he also shares a few historical anecdotal gems!

Please reach out to Steven on Twitter, follow his book launch at Waterstones (UK) where he will sign you a copy & if you're very lucky, he may well recite some more gems & please buy the book online at amazon or barnes and noble!
