Pocket Guide to Knots provides comprehensive instructions for tying more than 100 popular knots commonly used in climbing, hiking, boating, camping and fishing. An introductory section outlines the basics of rope construction, the many different types of ropes and cordage, as well as their maintenance and care, and also delves into the interesting history of knots and knot tying. The chapters are arranged by ‘family’ for easy identification, each knot featuring detailed tying instructions and step- by- step photography in full colour, as well as tips and lore, important advice on strength and security, and a quick-reference system that indicates suitable applications.
