  There are several thousand knots in existence and an infinite number of variations. This practical reference book presents over 90 knots, explaining and illustrating how to tie them in step-by-step photographs and text. An introductory section presents a history of knot tying, and background information on different rope materials, breaking strenghts and how to care for cordage. Subsequent chapters explain how to tie bends, hitches, loops and many other types of knot.
