Recognised the world over as the ' Home of Golf' St Andrews Links has borne witness to over 600 years of golfing history. That the game evolved & developed into its final form here has never been in question: St Andrews is the home of the game's most influential ruling body the Royal & Ancient Golf Club & it was here in 1764 when the 22-hole Old Course was reduced that today's standard 18-hole round was established. One golf course has now become seven & many of golf's most dramatic moments affecting the world's greatest players have occurred here. The Links has played host to the game's greats among them Allan Robertson & the Morrises in the nineteenth century Bobby Jones & Jack Nicklaus in the twentieth & Tiger Woods in the twenty-first as well as those enthusiastic amateurs for whom the chance to play St Andrews' hallowed turf is a dream come true. As Jack Nicklaus remarked: ' If a golfer is to be remembered he must win the title at St Andrews.' The worldwide fame of St Andrews is the result of a unique 120-year-old golf partnership between the town's local government & the R&A who between them have assured the Links' status by Act of Parliament as public courses. This celebratory volume the official history of golf's most important location was written by Tom Jarrett a caddie journalist golfer & author who lived all his life in this historic town & has been updated by Peter Mason who was involved in managing the Links throughout its most intensive
- & controversial
- phase of development.

Saint Cuthbert the best-loved Northern saint was born in the early seventh century & lived during an exciting & mysterious time in the history of Northumbria. During his life he had connections with many places
- the Lammermuir Hills Melrose Ripon in North Yorkshire the Farne Islands Whitby Carlisle Coldingham Coquet Island & Lindisfarne
- where he served both as prior & bishop. He made many excursions into wild Northumbria to spread the word of Christianity. Cuthbert died on Inner Farne on 20 March 576 AD but his fame did not end there. Eleven years after his death his body was found to be incorrupt. Lindisfarne became a place of pilgrimage
- the Lindisfarne Gospels were produced in his honour & his great following further developed. He had prophesied the Viking invasion that made the monks of Lindisfarne take his coff & flee the island to wander for seven years. They eventually settled in Chester-le-Street near Durham for over a hundred years until they fled from the Vikings again
- this time to Ripon. On their return they found the island peninsula of Durham & this was chosen as the final resting place for St Cuthbert. Eventually the Normans built the magnificent Durham Cathedral now a World Heritage Site to house his tomb. His cult following was as great as that of Thomas Becket. In this lavishly illustrated history of St Cuthbert Philip Nixon guides the reader through the scenery & architecture that formed the backdrop to the saints life work & legacy.
