The Ashley Book of Knots

When this book was written, for some, knowing the right knot meant the difference between life and death. These days, that knowledge is still mighty useful. The Ashley Book of Knots is 640 pages long, featuring more than 3,900 knots explained through 7,000 illustrations. That’s likely more information than you’ll ever need on the subject.
