The International History Channel, if you get that one did an excellent program on weapons of the middle ages. They spent a while on cross bows and long bows, wish I had taped it. If you get that station, watch for that program.

Also, remember the TV program called Tool Time with Tim Allen as the star? He had an assistant who's TV name was Al Borland, heavy set with a beard, can't think of his real name. On the History Channel, or maybe that one is also on the International History Channel he does a series called Foot Soldiers. The one he does on the middle ages covers the cross bow and shows how the two types operated. Pretty interesting with a little humor thrown in

Stay healthy,
