About the author

Available sources suggest Violet Flint was an early 20th-century author connected with A Golfing Idyll; or, The Skipper's Round with the Deil on the Links of St. Andrews, a playful work of verse associated with golf and Scottish setting. The book is often listed alongside A. Islay Bannerman, which points to a collaborative or jointly credited publication history.

Beyond those bibliographic traces, reliable personal details about Flint are hard to confirm from the sources found in this search. That likely means the surviving public record is sparse, so it is safest to remember Flint chiefly through this niche corner of humorous golf writing rather than through a well-documented life story.
