Tour Scotland Photographs St Rule's Tower St Andrews Cathedral Fife November 17th

Tour Scotland photograph shot this afternoon of St Rule's tower in the ruins of Cathedral in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. St Rule's tower is located in the Cathedral grounds but predates it, probably itself having been part of the Cathedral up to the early 12th century. The building was retained to allow worship to continue uninterrupted during the building of its much larger successor. Originally, the tower and adjoining choir were part of a church built probably in the 11th century to hold the relics of St Andrew.

This is a lavish, full colour exploration of the Scottish town whose name is synonymous with golf. St Andrews, once Scotland's greatest city, the cradle of its religion and the birthplace of its first university; today the ancient burg is known the world over as the spiritual home of golf, a place that evokes images of windswept seaside links and legendary golfing champions. St Andrews, Home of Golf celebrates this unique haven of the game through striking pictures by renowned golf photographer Kevin Murray, while the authors' blend of history, personal observations and anecdotes distills centuries of golfing tradition into lively, atmospheric prose. Combined, they capture the immortal nature of all that is best about golf embodied in one of its most important and beautiful locations.

For those who know and love St Andrews, this book will evoke fond memories. For those still to make the pilgrimage and walk in the footsteps of golf's greatest players, St Andrews: The Home of Golf is a must read that no lover of the game should be without.
