This weapon, distinctive in that it was used by English forces alone, was probably the most effective missile weapon of the Late Middle Ages: its arrow had the same penetrative ability as a modern day bullet and the bow's rate of fire was not equalled by any weapon used by English forces until the adoption of the Lee Enfield rifle at the beginning of the 20th century. The English longbowmen's involvement in wars such as the War of the Roses (1455-1485) and One Hundred Years' War (1337-1453) is discussed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clive Bartlett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1855324911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855324916\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.96h x 7.28w x 0.24d","brand":"Clive Bartlett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939022045439,"sku":"9781855324916","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c9dbcfed-5950-4e27-9c86-775d6bf6208e.jpg?v=1681439036","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/english-longbowman-1330-1515-clive-bartlett-9781855324916","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
