Artistic Mastery from Siobhan Royer-Hardy Combines with Stunning Photographs and Eloquent Editorial to Create the Beautiful 18 Greatest Irish Golf Holes and 18 Greatest Scottish Golf Holes

By Tim Branch

Golf aficionados and art lovers alike will be thrilled with the outstanding works from the publisher of the 18 Greatest Golf Holes collector edition coffee table books. Art Director Siobhan Royer-Hardy, a graphic designer based in Toulouse, France, directed the intense photo shoots to design the perfectly proportioned pages, covers and slipcases. Her talent and attention to detail culminated in the artistic masterpieces that have more in common with art or photography volumes than any other golf book ever published.

Throughout the creation of the limited editions, 18 Greatest Irish Golf Holes and 18 Greatest Scottish Golf Holes, Royer-Hardy worked with exclusively commissioned photography from National Geographic regular John Kernick, an international travel, lifestyle and food photographer based in New York City. His experience with people and culture enabled him to capture places and characters, the details which make 18 Greatest Golf… books such an inspiring experience.

Powerful narrative from the books’ accomplished and award winning authors ~ Craig Morrison and Andrew Ross ~ takes the reader on a journey through the history of golf in the two countries, along the way profiling the best 18 golf holes each territory has to offer.

In contrast to other books that attempt to rank the great golf holes of the world, the authors of the 18 Greatest Golf…titles have arrived at their lists by way of consensus as much as by having played most of the golf courses in each country. 18 Greatest Irish Golf Holes is prefaced by triple Major winner Padraig Harrington and includes interviews with some of the luminaries of the Irish game, including Rory McIlroy, Darren Clarke, Graham McDowell and some of the great golf architects such as Arnold Palmer, Nick Faldo, Greg Norman and Pat Ruddy.

18 Greatest Scottish Golf Holes is introduced by Ryder Cup winning captain Colin Montgomerie and features interviews and commentary from leading players and architects Paul Lawrie, David McLay Kidd, Kyle Philips and Gil Hanse.

Printed at the world’s finest printer in Verona, Italy in their very own presentation slip-cases and presented as strictly limited editions, these large format coffee table editions are set to be the must-have gifts for golf aficionados this holiday season.
