‘These memories are not vanity, they are neither a bible nor an encyclopaedia but a mosaic. You will find, of course, omissions, oversights and mistakes but also some preferences.
Above all, there are forty years of love for golf and its history.
These miscellanies are meant to be a bedside book for lovers of the little white ball. One of those books that you open with curiosity. Which you take in hand. Which you close… And to which one also likes to return.
Reading the book we learn some golf stories and of anecdotes which will allow us to enrich the conversations at the 19th hole.’

Les golfs centenaires de France à travers les cartes postales

Jean-Bernard Kazmierczak et Georges Jeanneau

With the subtitle “Hey Dad, why are you aiming the wrong target, asked me my daughter walking besides me on the course?”
Well, it’s written in French but it is full of Scottish Humour! Published in 2015, I just discovered it recently but could not resist to say a few words about it. It is privately printed, so the best is to get directly in touch with Philippe (ask us for his contact info) and an English translation is planned for the future. But don’t wait: it’s a great way to improve your French – especially as our next meeting is in Pau.
