History of Archery

1. Anecdotes of Archery by A.E.Hargrove 1791 (364pages)

Archery may be traced to the remotest ages. We read of the use of the bow in the history of many different nations ; from which we infer, that it is the most ancient, as well as the most universal, of all weapons. It was used against the beasts of the forest, long before men made war upon each other, and we find that it was...

In the mean while Sir John EUand and his family were preparing for church. The warning he had received lay heavy upon his spirit, and he secretly clad himself in a breastplate of proof.

Hence the energy at full draw is relatively...

Although thefe Tracts are dediecated to the Archer, and the English Long- bow is the fubject they profefs to treat upon : yet it is a fubject of intimately connected with the affairs of this kingdom, that it can not but prtially include the History and Antiquities of Great Britain : and therefore may poffibly attract the atten....

8. The Witchery of Archery 1878 by Maurice Thompson (282pages)

1. Use light, narrow-feathered arrows, with very blunt pewter heads. Pointed shafts will stick into the trees and remain out of reach. For a description of the method of making birding-arrows, see Appendix.
