Hi everyone,

I asked Jeff if I can send one of my books out into the world for others to read and enjoy.
It's not a classic written by a ledgend of the game, but it is still an interesting read.
It's titled "Longbow. A social and military history" written by Robert Hardy.
Basically it follows the longbow through history. It's designs, styles and uses by different cultures. It also has an account of the equipment found on the Mary Rose which is interesting.

So who would like it first?

cheers
Matt

I have read and enjoyed this text, learnt a bit too! It is a booklet so you can read it a few times in a couple of days and absorb a lot more , well that is what I did anyway! Who wants it next? PM me your address and it will be in the post within a couple of days.
