DL published this a long time ago, and it is funny how bad his tips are in it, but I love the swing sequences. (Amazon.com: Lessons from the Golf Greats: David Leadbetter: Books)

A few things stand out:
When the camera catches the same positions on the BS and DS it is amazing how half way back (left arm parallel) and same position half way down the body position is almost identical.
A few could qualify as S&T'ers. Azinger in particular.
The impact position shows how well thew real greats (Nicklaus) line up the right forearm and shaft at impact.
Nancy Lopez looks great at impact
Some great backswing pivots. Seve looks great as does Curtis Strange. In pictures it does not look like he sways as much right on the BS.
DLIII goes so wide in BS to short in DS.
Fun book

If you look at the pivot of Bobby Jones and some of the other old timers used you will see a lot of hip rotation and you will also see a weight shift that is closer to S&T than a shift to the right many instructors teach.

Just a thought?
