Beskrivning
Golf is not just a sport, it's a lifestyle. The large-format illustrated book Golf - The Ultimate Book pays homage to the most spectacular courses, the most legendary players and the most important competitions. Text in English and German.
Stefan Maiwald, born in 1971 in Braunschweig, is regarded as one of the most versatile authors in Germany. For the past 20 years, he has resided on the island of Grado, located between Venice and Trieste, where he writes novels, crime thrillers, and non-fiction. His historical crime novel Der Spion des Dogen was recognised as the best debut of the year by the HOMER authors' and critics' association, and his blog postausitalien.com is the most-read German-language site dedicated to Italy. He also wrote columns and reports for the trade magazine Golf Journal for many years. Maiwald spends much of his leisure time at the beach, where Grado boasts seven kilometres of fine sand.
