 The Scotsman - Critique - Different strokes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Though Cairns notes how easy it is to mythologise the nature of Scottish golf - we have our exorbitantly expensive, socially exclusive private clubs and courses - the sport remains, in many places, a people's game.
But when golf took off in England in the late 19th century, courses were built on private land and the game became the preserve of the new suburban middle-classes.
Cairns outlines how they imported the fantasy of landed gentry life: the Capability Brown landscapes of nature tamed into a playground for pursuing golf balls rather than deer; the notion of the gentlemen's club ruled by tradition and exclusivity; a solace and retreat.
