The Hamlyn Book of Sailing Knots by Geoffrey Budworth
A practical guide to more than 60 essential nautical knots for sailors at all levels, 'Sailing Knots' offers clear illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions for tying everything from a basic reef knot to an ornate Turk's Head. It includes an at-a-glance guide to the uses of each knot, along with knot tying terms, tips and techniques. There are sections on fundamental sailing knots, bends and hitches, splices, whippings and coiling. Also featured is the history and lore of all the knots a sailor needs to master, whether under sail or power, racing or cruising.
Geoffrey Budworth co-founded the 'International Guild of Knot Tyers' in 1982. He is a frequent contributor to the quarterly journal 'Knotting Matters' and author of four Hamlyn books on knots.
