Weighing nearly 10 pounds, Where Golf is Great: The Finest Courses of Scotland and Ireland by James W. Finegan is a substantial book. But the real weight of this seminal work lies in the Finegan's delightful essays spread through the tome's 528 pages. His love of the islands' great courses—from meccas like the Old Course and Ballybunion to hidden gems like Brora and Enniscrone—is palpable with every word. And with the work of a pair of first-rate photographers, Larry Lambrecht (courses) and Tim Thompson (local sights and scenery), this book is an instant classic. ($60)
