In the trilogy 'Games for Kings & Commoners' the authors have been able to explain in depth what kind of games the 'continentals' played and how they compare with each other. Regularly golf is used as benchmark. The authors must have spent numerous hours in archives, museums, libraries, etc. in the different countries to retrieve information which regularly surpasses the knowledge on specific aspects of golf history.

The publication is available direct from the authors via ancientgolf@wanadoo.fr
