What images pop into your head when you hear the word "longbow"? A swash-buckling Robin Hood and his Merry Men? Legolas, the elfish archer from The Lord of the Rings trilogy? Green Arrow, the crime-fighting, comic book bowman?These were the images that often popped into Nick Viau's head whenever he heard mention of the term. He'd been attracted to all things bow and arrow throughout his youth but wasn't sure why. Then, at the age of 27, the stress of a busy work week thrust him deep into the pages of an archery-infused comic book, where he was introduced to Howard Hill, the famous longbow-wielding archer and hunter.Through Hill, Nick discovered the longbow and was thrilled to find a community of present-day enthusiasts still shooting and hunting with it. Before long, he had one of his own and was looking to join them. Life and Longbows isn't your average hunting book. It is a memoir of self-discovery that watches Nick grow from a wide-eyed, adventure-seeking dreamer to a seasoned archer and bowhunter.

A powerful and iconic weapon, the longbow dominated Medieval warfare in England. From the Hundred Years War to Hastings, Robin Hood and Agincourt, the longbow was also used to a devastating effect in naval battles. Kings of England encouraged the use of the longbow by sponsoring tournaments with prizes for successful archers. All other sports were banned on a Sunday except for archery. At any particular time, England would have a large pool of experienced archers ready to be called up for war. Each English shire had to provide the king with a certain number of trained archers per year – and this was enforced by law. But where did the longbow originate and why did it come to dominate archery in this way? The Pitkin Guide to Longbows and Archery explores these questions and looks at the ordinary men who used bows and arrows as soldiers and in their day-to-day lives.

Roland Inness desperately needs meat for his starving family, but he takes the wrong deer on the wrong nobleman's land. Worse yet, he uses his longbow, a weapon outlawed and suppressed by the Norman overlords of England. Now they are coming for him. With one shot the 14 year old peasant boy is launched on a desperate flight that takes him from the mountains of Derbyshire to the wild frontier of Wales and on to the court of Richard the Lionheart. Along the way he is hunted by a paid killer, aided by a strange monk named Tuck, and taken in by a gruff Norman knight, who values his amazing skill with the bow. That skill and his courage are sorely tested as he fights to earn the trust of his new master.

Back in the early 1960s, I watched Fred Bear on the "The American Sportsman" show, hunting Grizzly Bear with his recurve bow. That was it! I knew that I had witnessed the ultimate hunting challenge, and have been an avid archer and bowhunter ever since. Like most archers of that time, when the compound bow came on the market, I hung up my recurve for a compound. I spent most weekdays shooting 100's of practice arrows and weekends deer hunting and shooting 3d tournaments. Archery for me changed during the 1980s. After reading the Howard Hill book "Hunting the Hard Way," I bought my first longbow - an 80# straight limb Martin. It wasn't long before I harvested my first buck & gobbler with a longbow. Traditional archery became an obsession. Archery has come full circle for me. I now enjoy hunting with a modern compound bow, which I used to harvest the Columbia County, Georgia #1 P&Y record book buck.
