Item description from seller

Front inner flap of DJ is price clipped (DJ now in mylar protector). Slight rubbing and handling to DJ ; "Written at a time when the bow was still a primary weapon, the treatise is of major importance in the field of military history. Not only does it furnish-for the first time- a detailed explanation of the horse-archer's techniques, but it also offers specifications of the best war bow of the author's time and area. It enables us, among other things, to assess the degree of accuracy expected of a Mameluke archer and to form a clear idea of such technical matters as minimum discharge velocities of adequate war bows." ; 219 pages. Very Good+ in Very Good+ dust jacket.
