In easy steps, the reader is carried through the process, from finding the proper kinds of wood to the finished products. No fancy equipment required - just hand tools and time. The book also extols the values and challenges in shooting and hunting with the self-made bow and arrows. The hunters among us are challenged to 'even the odds' between the hunter and the hunted and rediscover the 'romance' of hunting as the earlt Indians hunted.". Seller Inventory # ABE-1779832191483
