Hand, Reef and Steer by Tom Cunliffe
Explaining the sailing characteristics of classic craft, this book describes how to handle heavy loads using tackles and making the boat work for you. It offers advice on setting up the rig; sail handling skills; manouevring a long-keel boat; steering with sails, topsails, watersails, single-luff spinnakers and fisherman staysails.
