Σύνοψη βιβλίου
The book by Adrian Eliot Hodgkin was first published as a large format edition in 1951. This photo-reduced paperback reprint has been produced in response to the growing interest in archery and the traditional skills employed in the archers craft. It is an invaluable guide for those who wish to make bows, especially longbows, arrows and other archers tackle, the traditional way. Although Hodgkin's book was originally written for hunters, the practice of hunting with the bow is now illegal in the United Kingdom, and the interest nowadays is more commonly in target practice and competitions, as well as reenactments of mock battles.Included in this edition are numerous useful illustrations to assist those wishing to make their own archery equipment.show more
