American Indian archery book
« on: September 24, 2015, 09:00:29 am »
Hi guys I just got my hands on a copy of American Indian archery by Reginald and Gladys Laubin. I think it looks brilliant and can't wait to start reading it. For those of you who are familiar with the book what are your thoughts about the veracity of Laubins research?
Cheers Sieddy  :)

It's a good book I like it a lot.

Search for the Hamilton's book (I have a paperprint), here is much more info.
And the most I like the 'encyclopedia of american native bows' by Jim Hamm and Steve Allely

Hi Simon thanks for the tips. I got started on the book this afternoon and it starts off really good.  Laubin has a readable style at least  :)
