Excerpt from Introductory:The grey old city of St. Andrews, with the ruins of its great cathedral facing the waters of the German Ocean, its ancient university buildings and its historic golf links, has become in recent times familiar to a large proportion of the inhabitants of Great Britain. It is now a fashionable watering-place, crowded for three months every year by visitors from all parts of the country; whilst the game of golf, which has been played at St. Andrews without inter�mission for centuries, draws every summer to the city an increasing number of the votaries of that most healthful and enjoyable recreation.
