Das Bogenbauer-Buch

A curved stick and a string - for 20,000 years, this fascination has persisted to this day. Archery in its most primitive form, using simple equipment, has been gaining more followers in recent years. The art of bow making has also been rediscovered. In this book, experienced bow makers and practical archaeologists describe the construction of European longbows - straightforward instructions with precise measurements from the Stone Age bow to the modern laminated longbow.
