TMSH 3/13/sh6 - Old Book

113in2013 78 - Rope, String or Twine

 

The Ashley Book of Knots. After being taught how to tie a Monkey's Fist by some old Sea Dog, I was told that The Ashley Book of Knots was a hard to obtain book that was indispensable for anyone needing to know anything and everything about knots. A visit to a second hand book store around the corner to my apartment and I found this first edition (1944) book that I bought for $10. The year was 1980 and I've packed this book around with me ever since.
