Book Reviews of The Marlinspike Sailor

Book Review: Easier to handle than Ashley
Summary: 5 Stars

What a fantastic book. If you would like to learn how to do any number of very cool things with rope, and to do them without (much) frustration, I can't recommend a better book. Plus, there are some fun projects that are not rope based but well worth the effort.

Book Review: A Classic.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is essential reading for anyone who wants to work with laid line. It's a collection of articles first published in The Rudder in the 1950s, so synthetic and braided line are treated as afterthoughts, if at all.

Book Review: A must have
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is an excellent compliment to the Ashley book of knots. If you love rope, knots, or sailing this is a book that will be a welcome addition to your collection.

Book Review: No doubt a must own!
