4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent photos on how to tie knots!, September 18, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Art of Knotting and Splicing (Day) (Paperback)
One of the best books I've found on knots. More comprehensive than a small manual but not as overwhelming as Ashley. PLUS, the photographs on how to tie the knots are the best I've found anywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent manual for knotting, November 13, 2002
This review is from: Art of Knotting and Splicing (Day) (Paperback)
The excellent photographies of the knots leading from one step to the next are the best didactical material I have found since my boy scout days nearly half a century ago.
A welcome addition for the classical scholar is the section on "Knots in History and in Folklore". Now I know that the hitch I used to strap a bottle to my belt is over two millennia old, and the knot I used most with the scouts and firefighters has its own meaning in old Roman matrimonial ceremonies.
I strongly recommend this book, especially because of its reasonable price, to the beginner and advanced student
