Nice Reference Book

I fancy myself as a sort of lowbrow renaissance man, and have a diverse library of reference books. This is my book of choice when it comes to knots. I found the author's choice of knots to be a nice collection of knots that can be used in the everyday real world. The Power-Cinch/Trucker's Knot was worth the price of the book alone. This is an awesome little knot that I now use all the time when securing my canoe to the top of my vehicle, or tying down a load. It's great to see the "how did you do that?" look on other people's faces, too, when they watch me tie something down. This is a nice little book.

Very useful book on many different types of knots. I was able to use some new knots out in the field while on an overnight canoe trip. Some great knots for securing equipment. I had fun just practicing them at home while reading the book.
