This review is from: Complete Book of the Bow and Arrow (Paperback)

This book was published in 1971, and is very proud of "modern" archery technology -- while this makes it a funny read, it's not really very useful anymore. The author skims over all the necessary subjects, giving them mention and a very brief explanation, without going into any of the necessary depth. You will learn from this book if you know nothing of archery, but if you've already shot a bow, and know what the nock point is, try for a less condescending book. It does have groovy pictures of archers with bellbottoms, though.
