Download or read book Toxophilus The School of Shooting History of Archery Series written by Roger Ascham and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2011-03-29 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toxophilus, originally published in 1545, is considered to be the first book on archery written in English. This comprehensive treatise on longbow archery provides a fascinating insight into historical shooting. "how honest a pastime for the mind, how wholesome an exercise for the body" - Roger Ascham The work comprises two books combined together: The First Book of the School of Shooting and The Second Book of the School of Shooting. They are written in the form of a dialogue between Toxophilus 'A lover of the bow' and Philogus 'A lover of learning'. In the discussion, Toxophilus justifies his love of archery as a pastime, puts forward his reasons for retaining the bow as a weapon of war instead of the newly favoured hand gun, and he gives practical instructions on the technique of shooting in the bow. This antiquarian book will appeal to those with an interest in the history and development of the use of a bow and arrow, and it would make for the perfect addition to collections of related literature. Many old books such as this are increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this text in an affordable, modern edition complete with a new prefatory biography of the author. Contents include: Introduction Chronicle of Life, Work, and Times of Roger Ascham Apologia The Royal Arms Dedication to King Henry VIII To All Gentlemen and Yeoman of England The First Book of the School of Shooting The Second School of Shooting Glossary of Old Words Imprints of the first two editions of Toxophilus Notes on the Glossary of Old Words Additional Archery Terminology

Book excerpt: If your passion is longbow shooting, longbow making or longbow history, you will gain some great insight from this book. "Modern Longbow Design & Toxophilus" takes the words of Roger Ascham (the longbow archers god) and relates them to modern longbow in a way that is both interesting and logical. The book has sufficient depth, allowing you to make your own longbow and understand why. The knowledge in the book comes from the past, and is interpreted for you by the author in a way that is, so obvious that you wonder why people make such a fuss about longbow making. The author actively tries to dispel your fears on making longbow and the diagrams beautifully illustrate the points made. Apart from the fine illustrations, the book contains many quotes from Ascham; a gentleman writing about longbow in the time of King Henry the VIII, his words illuminate the book, these words are controversial but are very enjoyable when read with the authors interpretations. If you want to understand your longbow then start here.
