About the authors
W. Butt
Best known for revising and rewriting a classic guide to archery, this little-documented writer helped shape one of the sport’s enduring 19th-century manuals. The surviving record points more clearly to the work than to the person, which gives the book an added sense of period charm.

b. 1822
Best remembered as one of the great Victorian archers, this English writer turned practical mastery of the bow into a classic book on the sport. His work remains closely tied to the revival and popular culture of archery in the 19th century.
