The Book of the Crossbow. by Sir Ralph Payne-Gallwey

[Boyd]

This book is now available at Dymocks.

Its a reprinted scan of the original work of 1903 or 1907

On a brief scan in the store it looks like there's a lot of technical info on making bits and pieces for your crossbow. There's also a section on the Turkish bow plus sections about siege weaponry.

Here is the information from Amazon;

Thanks for that Boyd. From reading the Amazon reviews it sounds like an excellent book. I might have to take a peek into Dymocks at some point.

Cheers,

We have a copy of that in Steve's library that is either an original printing or a very early reprint, it is an amazing volume.
