8.The Arts of the Sailor: Knotting, Splicing and RopeworkThe Arts of the Sailor: Knotting, Splicing and Ropework
from Dover Publications
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:
A generally informative book, but.....
some of the directions refer to diagrams with arrows showing the direction of the rope. No such arrows!
Overall fair to good diagrams and interesting history, but I think I would have bought a different book had I known what was missing.
