About Banff Springs Golf
The world’s best golfers,
movie stars, celebrities, club members, and every-day golf
enthusiasts—they have all played the Banff Springs’ hallowed links. Since
1911 there has always been a golf course in Banff National Park, waiting
for those wishing to enjoy a round in one of the grandest settings
imaginable. This book recounts the heritage of golf at the Banff Springs
on what is regarded as the crowning achievement for Stanley Thompson,
Canada’s revered golf course architect. Come and join us as we play a
round with history. About the Author E. J. (Ted) Hart graduated from the University of Alberta with a Master’s Degree in Western Canadian History in 1972. Recruited to work in the archives at the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies, he became Head Archivist in 1976 and in 1979 the Executive Director of the Whyte Museum, a position which he continues to hold. Through this time, Ted has authored a dozen books on the history of Banff and the Canadian Rockies, including Golf on the Roof of the World, a detailed history for members of the Banff Springs Golf Club. He was the mayor of Banff from 1995 to 1998. |
