Old Tom Morris' great great grandson, Melvyn Hunter Morrow said; "'Memoirs Of The Legendary Iron Man Of St. Andrews' illuminates the darkness of the early days of life of a St Andrews golf'n family. Tis a great story of humble golf'n folk, which can be enjoyed by golfers and non-golfers alike. This book presents a rare opportunity to follow and understand the lives behind the development of the modern game of golf and includes cameo appearances of several of the great legends of the game. It reminds me of my days at home in St Andrews as a young lad exploring the cathedral ruins and the old town, not to mention the walks and games on The Old Course, which in its present state owes much of the design and workings to a certain Tom Morris, alias Old Tom Morris, my great, great grandfather. A must read for all.

 

          "Memoirs Of The Legendary Iron Man Of St. Andrews" takes the reader back to the very heart of golf’s infancy and lifts the veil of mystery that surrounds the real-life identity of the early 19th century clubmaker-blacksmith known to golf historians and museum curators worldwide, only as ‘the Ringmaker.’
          The memoirs entail a hauntingly in-depth account of the Iron Man’s 89 well-spent years of life and golf within the enchanted royal burgh of his birth, beginning mid-June of 1827, when at age six, he and his six year-old best chum, wee Tom Morris met “The Wizard of the North,” Sir Walter Scott beneath St. Rules Tower in the graveyard amongst the ruins of St. Andrews Cathedral.
