This comprehensive, fully-illustrated how-to guide covers everything from the history of knots and what you need to know about rope to ways to make more than 50 types of knots and learn the fine art of lashing
Very useful with many kid friendly diagrams This book was given to me by a friend. As a Girl Scout Leader I found the book very helpful in 1st learning to make the knots myself and then teaching them to my girls. The girls found the diagrams very easy to follow. I would recommend this book to anyone who needs good visuals . Its colorful anyway . This book has very colorful illustrations and some interesting bits of information, but the book is large for the for the number of knots covered and does have some misleading or wrong illustrations.. Keep Looking Ingrid Picked this up along with several other books for my daughter who is interested in learning to tie some knots. Book is colorful and easy to read (I had high hopes) but the diagrams provided are too simplistic in many instances to actually help you figure out how to tie the knots
