A book for yachtsmen which demonstrates, stage by stage, the tying of 30 knots, 19 rope splices, seven decorative knots and five wire splices. We are naturally gratified that the success of our two Shell Books of Knots and Ropework and Practical and Decorative Ropework has been such that this combined volume is called for. Part One comprises the basic knots and splices with a few of the decorative type thrown in for good measure. Part Two is devoted principally to the decorative work practised by the old sailing-ship seamen whose craftsmanship approached art. Certainly it is on the level of macrame.
