Well researched, thoughtfully prepared.

This book was under the tree Christmas morning for my husband's knot book collection. It has very good instruction for specialized knots used by arborists.

was really a great book to learn you some new knots

I bought this book with some paracord to learn how to tie knots and ropes to start practicing some amateur climbing. I must say this is the best book to learn how to tie all your essential climbers knots. Not only does it show you how to tie all the knots you need to know through illustrations, the book also shows you all the knots primary and secondary uses, rope care, which rope to use and buy, as well as rope terminology, which is actually quite fun. This book will fulfil all your needs when just learning about how to tie some cool knots or trying to get into the sport of climbing. This book is a must have.
