Is a Longbow Different than a regular Bow?

I'm new to this game and I want to be an Archer. I am probably going to be a human, and eventually become a Hawkeye then Saggitarus. On the Hawkeye description it says they are good with longbows-is this any different than any other bow? Thanks.
There's only one type of bow, so no need to worry.

Technically there are fast attack speed and slow attack speed bows, but there's always a top bow for each grade that you'll pick regardless of the type. As far as weapon masteries go they're all lumped into the bow category that every archer gets.

There really are no "types" of bows. They all use the same masteries.

Edit: Doh! What the guy above me said...
