It untangles the secrets behind basic, joining, constricting, fisherman's, and climber's knots, as well as tying loops, rings, and hitches. More than 290 diagrams appear throughout the text.Blandford, Percy W. is the author of 'Practical Knots and Ropework', published 1980 under ISBN 9780830699568 and ISBN 0830699562.
