This colorful illustrated work documents the life of George Herbert Walker. The patriarch of the Walker-Bush families, he is the grandfather of George H.W. Bush and great-grandfather of George W. Bush. The former member of St. Louis Country Club, he was instrumental in the hiring of Charles Blair Macdonald, who designed the spectacular layout in 1914, with the assistance of Seth Raynor, another legend in the history of golf's architecture. Walker also conceived of the Walker Cup, donating the Cup used to this day for the amateur matches between men from the United States versus men from Great Britain and Ireland.
