The Golf Omnibus (1996) - Plot & Excerpts

My first Wodehouse book...a collection of short stories relating to golf. I imagine if Aesop were a fun-loving golfer, this is how his series of fables might turn out. Almost every sentence is carefully crafted for maximum elegance and hilarity (which I imagine the rest of Wodehouse's works are). And as a budding golfer, I also learned a little golf technique and history, via some endearingly antiquated golf terms such as 'mashie-niblick,' though I imagine, wasn't exactly Wodehouse's intent.I had to subtract a star, because in some points there was a lot to slog through (and I am a slow reader), but maybe it's just a fault of my own that my attention-span isn't focused enough.

Oh yeah, and I do mean ALL of the golf stories. I think if they'd come at me in monthly installments, I might've felt a little less burned out by the end.
