Cool! - Nice collection.

I would like to read "The Grey Goose Wing", myself. I have read a number of the other books mentioned.

Toxofolus, by Roger Ascham is an exceptional archer book as well. Roger was the Archery Teacher (Greek and Latin as well) of Elisabeth I, daughter of Henry VIII. Toxofolus was written in 1535 & although it is bit tough to read the 'old English', you get used to it - a delightful old book. I have loaned it out, never to have been returned, along with the "Witchery of Archery".

The large tall armoire's made to hold long bows, were called Aschams, in honour of Roger Ascham.

"The Witchery Of Archery" by the Art & Wil Thompson, post American Civil War, is another archery treasure trove of shooting and adventure & much fun to read concerning long bow archery in the Florida Everglades.
