Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Archery' by Robert Potter Elmer stands as a seminal and comprehensive study of one of humanity's oldest skills and sports. Written by a leading authority and multi-time national champion, this work delves deep into the mechanics, history, and practice of the bow and arrow. From the technical… aspects of bowyery and arrow-making to the refined techniques of target shooting, Elmer provides a detailed guide that serves both the beginner and the seasoned archer.The book explores the evolution of archery from a survival necessity and weapon of war into a sophisticated sport of precision and discipline. Readers will find exhaustive information on the materials used in crafting traditional equipment, the physics of flight, and the psychological focus required for excellence on the range. 'Archery' is not merely a technical manual; it is an exploration of the cultural significance of the sport throughout the ages. Its historical insights and practical advice make it an essential resource for anyone interested in the legacy and mastery of the bow.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition, first printing, of this translation of a 16th century treatise on Muslim bows and tactics. It contains plates and illustrations showing many types of bows and finger positions for archers. Nabih Amin Faris (1906-1968), an Arab historian and translator, partnered with the American archery champion Robert Potter Elm…er (1877-1951) to create this translation. The original manuscript is held in the Garrett Collection of Arabic Manuscripts in Princeton University Library, which Faris had catalogued seven years before this present publication. The author is unknown but theorized from references in the text to be Moroccan. "This ancient Arabic manuscript is the only treatise on the archery of the medieval Orient that has been translated into English. It is thorough and authoritative, evidently the work of an expert bowman. A vast amount of information concerning the long-range artillery, by which one eastern empire after another had been won, is here brought forth into full light after having lain hidden for centuries" (p. vi). Octavo. With 3 half-tone plates, illustrations in the text. Original light green ribbed cloth, spine lettered in gilt on black ground, top edge black. With dust jacket. Stamp to title page ("Mundt, A. V."). Spine ends rubbed, contents bright; jacket unclipped, spine toned, ends chipped with one repaired tear, extremities nicked, panels lightly scuffed and marked: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.
