The Archer’s Craft Customer Review: Spendid read on the History and craft of bowmaking
We all know from childhood how to make a bow and arrow from a thin branch, a piece of string and a sharpened stick. A.E. Hodgkin knows how to do it correctly. He starts the book with a history of archery quoting extracts from various historical sources on its rise and fall as a military weapon, its revival, survival and dismissal under the various Kings and Queens of England. He describes the types of wood for bows and arrows giving reasons for their choice. His writing is splendidly readable being both simplistic and impassioned. Written in the 1950’s he tells a knowledgeable and enlightening lesson with a delightful attitude so laid back that he is truly professional. A Rick Stein of Archery. The second half of the book describes the simple methods of bow and arrow making at home, in the sun, on the doorstep. The last part of the book deals with hunting with the bow and the various techniques learnt through listening and observing. It is evident Hodgkin didn’t waste his time watching television, but instead absorbed himself in his hobby, learning his craft, reading and practising. Fortunately for us he took time out to patiently impart the facts to the reader in a most relaxed and enjoyable style.

Imaginative Writing: The Elements of Craft (Penguin Academics) Customer Review: A Geeky Review
We (my companion and I)love this book because it is the first creative writing text book that we have come across that has taught us more than lectures and seminars put together. The exercises are fun and inventive, and are good practice for any aspiring writer. It also helps when you are wearing thin on the ideas front. Just a thought, a copy should be made for those who are slightly visually impaired…an a4 sized book perhaps with slightly larger text for those who cant be bothered to wear their glasses!

Heart and Soul: Revealing the Craft of Songwriting, in association with the British Academy of Composers and Songwriters Customer Review: A fantastic book!
I bought this for my boyfriend (who is a musician) last month and he has found this to be the best book on songwriting there is. Really easy to read and to understand, he has been writing some great songs as a result. In fact, he finally wrote a song for me - something he has been promising me for ages! I would recommend this book wholeheartedly to any musician or girlfriend of a musician! Love S x
Customer Review: Very thorough! Mojo Review
“Very thorough guide to the arcane world of writing songs for fun and profit…If you think you have the required resilience [to be a songwriter], then you’ll need a copy of Heart & Soul.”
