The New Yorker Book of Golf Cartoons

A hilarious hole in one! Golfers are, to say the least, dedicated (some would argue certifiable) and these cartoons bring out the best of the humor of the game-from its triumphs to its frustrations. The New Yorker 's cartoon editor Bob Mankoff has selected the very best golf cartoons for this book from the magazine's amazing artists. And the best of The New Yorker means cartoonists like Charles Addams, Peter Arno, George Booth, Roz Chast, Edward Koren, and William Steig. George Plimpton has theorized on sports books that "the smaller the ball, the better the book." He was commenting on prose, but this fabulous collection proves his theory true for cartoons as well.

Robert Mankoff is the cartoon editor of The New Yorker. He is also a cartoonist, and more than 900 of his cartoons have been published in the magazine in the past thirty years, including the best-selling New Yorker cartoon of all time. He is the author of the book The Naked Cartoonist, published in 2002, about the creative process behind developing magazine-style cartoons. He has also edited dozens of cartoon books and published four of his own.

Danny Shanahan has published more than 800 cartoons, covers, and illustrations in The New Yorker since 1988. His work has also appeared in many other publications, including Time, Newsweek, Playboy, Esquire, and the New York Times. Shanahan has illustrated several children's books, has had four collections of his own cartoons published, and has had work exhibited in museums and galleries, from London and Berlin to New York and San Francisco.
