American Indian Archery
By Reginald and Gladys Laubin, very interesting book on American Indian Archery, covering designs, techniques, lots color prints, here's an excerpt from one chapter on Indian skirmishes:
"De Soto took an Indian prisoner and had him demonstrate the power and accuracy of his shooting. He pierced a coat of chain mail at 150 paces. A second coat of mail was then placed on top of the first, and an arrow pierced both of them but did not go completely through as it had the first time"
no sissy bows here!
