Item description from seller

Leather-bound Hardcover, Limited Edition (only 1,250 copies printed) 1993 Signed by Glenn St. Charles Derrydale Press 318 pages. Fine, No DJ - as issued. Dark Green leather boards with gilt titles and accents - corners sharp. No previous owner markings - all pages are clean and unmarked. All edges gilt (AEG). Raymond Naylor (illustrator). This is a beautiful reprint of Hunting The Hard Way by Howard Hill. Part of the Legends of the Longbow Library. Signed by Glenn St. Charles, Commissioner of the Longbow Library and Founder of the Pope and Young Club. This copy is number PP298 of 1,250 copies. Howard Hill ( November 13, 1899 ? February 4, 1975) was an expert bowman who for over two decades, from the early 1930s into the 1950s, was often introduced or billed as "The World's Greatest Archer". He established the record for winning the most bow-and-arrow field tournaments in succession, a total of 196 competitions. In addition, Hill served as a supporting actor, trick-shot performer, and technical adviser on archery for Hollywood shorts and feature films. In 1938 he also performed all the bow-and-arrow stunts for Errol Flynn's Technicolor "swashbuckler" The Adventures of Robin Hood, followed by additional stunts and trick shots for other films starring Flynn, including The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex. His Wikipedia entry is impressive but only tells a part of the story. A superb copy. Highly Recommended. LOC FB-02.
