Olde Timey Archery books

I was gazing upon Saxton Pope's Hunting With the Bow & Arrow, in which he refers to Ishi's techniques for bow-building and hunting, as well as his own longbow knowledge.
I found a free copy of it at Project Gutenberg:
http://www.gutenberg.org/files/8084/8084-h/8084-h.htm

I wonder if there are any other "ole-timey" books on archery that might be in public domain?
