Annotation from
Golf Course Design,
by Geoffrey S. Cornish and Michael J. Hurdzan: | "A section, 'Grass for Happier Living', describes uses of turfgrass including golf courses. Papers were prepared by the leading turfgrass scientists of the years following World War II. They included Fanny-Fern Davis, Fred V. Grau, H.B. Musser, J.A. DeFrance, G.W. Burton and Marvin H. Ferguson. Later Ferguson became a member of the ASGCA. He is also remembered as the 'Father of the USGA Method for Green Construction'." p. 125 |
