However, it was in 2002, following the release of Golf Architecture: A Worldwide Perspective (Vol One), when Daley introduced his ground-breaking concept of an essay series. He invited contributions from many renowned golf course architects and edited their essays into a single literary volume. This design concept has since led to a six-volume series, supported by imagery that includes photography, plans, drawings and renderings. Paul expects to push forward with the seventh volume in the near future.

While golf course architecture is Daley’s main writing and publishing connection to golf, his interest extends to other aspects of the sport, such as its history, governance, equipment, and the business of professional golf. More recently, in 2017, Paul’s fascination with the great Ben Hogan resulted in a new publication, Ben Hogan: The Yardstick of Golfing Greatness.
