This scarce antiquarian book comprises an exhaustive manual of long-range bow shooting for the use of archers who wished to become contestants at the Grand National Association Meetings, written by the president of the association, Maurice Thompson.

James Maurice Thompson (1844 -1901) was an American novelist most famous for his works: The Witchery of Archery (1878) and Alice of Old Vincennes (1900). This rare book was originally published in 1879 and is proudly published here with a new prefatory biography of the author.
