MUST have for anyone who likes history,legends, or the bow
16. August 2005
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I special ordered one of the signed limited editions from Amazon.co.uk when they were first published and have never regretted it. It’s a beautiful book with wonderful illustrations and
photographs. E. G. Heath is one of the world greatest authorities on the bow and it shows in this comprehensive book which starts with the origins of the bow (with some terrific photographs from the 1930's of primitive hunters who actually used the bow as their primary weapon) graduated to the compound bow and then on to the heyday of the English Longbow, its military decline and revival as a sporting weapon. If there is a fault, it is that the font is a bit small for comfortable reading and the index is not quite as extensive as it might by. These are minor faults for a unique book that gives such a broad review of archery from the stone age to modern times Asian and Western. While the coverage of any one subject or area is necessarily brief, this is more than made up for by the bibliography at the end of each chapter.
I note that there is a new (2002) edition listed on Amazon.co.uk, New for USD $135.00, Used for USD $102 while the 1971 edition that I have is available for USD $207.00. I can not speak to the 2002 edition but the 1971 edition is well worth the price.
