The Way of Archery provides a detailed introduction to practicing
archery in the traditional Chinese military style. It explains the
basics of how to shoot using the Asian thumb ring: proper posture,
training regimen, equipment, and avoiding pitfalls in shooting. The
thorough translation and commentary (with original and new
illustrations) provide a fresh and practical perspective on Gao
Ying s 1637 archery treatise (which, itself, influenced generations
of archers in East Asia). The authors themselves are active
practitioners of Chinese archery, having spent an endless amount of
time and effort vetting their understanding of this old manual and
putting its ideas into practice. Through this process, the authors
have been able to make this archery text accessible to modern
readers. Not only will the reader come to understand the technical
side of the Way of Archery, but will connect with the philosophy
and spirit of the ancient Chinese warriors."
