Download or read book The Annapolis Book of Seamanship written by John Rousmaniere and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and updated to address changes in technology, this new edition is the definitive guide to the art and science of sailing. Since the publication of the widely hailed first edition in 1983, The Annapolis Book of Seamanship has set the standard by which other books on sailing are measured. Used throughout America as a textbook in sailing schools and Power Squadrons, The Annapolis Book of Seamanship thoroughly and clearly covers the fundamental and advanced skills of modern sailing. This edition of Annapolis is a major overhaul. Over half the book has been revised; old topics and features have been updated, and many new ones have been introduced. The design has been modernized, and many color illustrations have been added. As big and detailed as Annapolis is, the wealth of technical information (including dozens of step-by-step instructions) is presented here in a way that is uniquely readable; it's both useful and easy to use. This is because John Rousmaniere and artist Mark Smith bring to Annapolis decades of experience both as sailors and as professional communicators. Annapolis emphasizes the standard skills and proven methods that eliminate error and confusion, ensure security in emergencies, and allow every sailor more time for enjoyment on the water. Much has changed on the water since 1983 when this book was originally published. Black buoys are now green, the Global Positioning Satellite navigation system (GPS) is almost universally used, new types of anchors and sails have appeared, safety skills and gear are vastly improved, many more women are commanding boats, and catamarans and trimarans are common where only monohulls used to sail. But for all these modern developments, the basic skills and spirit of sailing have not changed at all. Sail trimming, keeping up steerageway, maintaining the dead reckoning plot, heaving-to -- these fundamentals are as important now as ever and receive much attention here. Among the innovations in this edition are: * Basic skills in early chapters: Fundamental sailing and boat-handling skills and gear, which are introduced in chapters 1, 2, and 3. * "Hands On" segments: Three dozen special sections, each devoted to a particular seamanship problem and an expert solution. * More how-to tips: Additional rules of thumb that guide a crew quickly and successfully through seamanship problems. * New coverage of multihulls: Advice on evaluating, anchoring, and handling catamarans and trimarans under sail (including in storms). * More on emergencies: New material on emergencies, safety, and heavy-weather sailing, including a section on preparing a docked boat for a hurricane. * Equipment updates: Expanded coverage of the use and care of modern gear and hardware, including radar, GPS, rescue devices, and asymmetrical spinnakers. * Terminology: Full definition and illustration of major terms when they're first introduced, with alternative language provided in parentheses. * Gender: The use of feminine personal pronouns, which reflect the fact that more women are captaining and sailing boats than ever before. From navigation and seamanship to boat and gear maintenance, from pleasure cruising to heavy-weather sailing, here is the definitive, state-of-the-art guide that provides systematic step-by-step techniques to see you through every situation on deck and in the cockpit.

Download or read book Be Who You Are written by Jimmy Brandmeier and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A musician’s song for his children is an impassioned call to stay true to yourself—and the basis for this inspiring guide to living authentically. Award-winning composer and musician Jimmy Brandmeier always knew that happiness meant never letting go of your dreams. As his children made their way out of the nest and into the world, he wanted to make sure they had the same sense of self-direction. So he did what he does; he wrote a song. But his message was bigger than a ballad could hold. Jimmy dug deeper into everything he wanted to impart to his kids, and his song became this uniquely intimate, humorous, and spiritual book. In Be Who You Are, Brandmeier offers his children a map to the inner and outer roads of life. He teaches them that the only possible failure is failing to be who you are. No matter how successful your life may look on the outside, your authenticity is what gives your life purpose and meaning. Little did Jimmy know that the message he was so passionate about giving his children is one we all need to hear: Be Who You Are―always, no matter what, no matter where.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Recollections of older Canadians, selections from writings by Canadian authors and letters written by children indicate that for most children play was then, as now, an essential part of childhood." "In both rural and urban settings, children were generally free to explore their environment. Their games were usually self-organized and physically active, and they frequently made their own toys and equipment. Their lives were busy, but there was always time for play, always time for fun." "Norah Lewis has provided an entertaining view of the toys, games and activities in Canada and pre-confederate Newfoundland from approximately 1900 through 1955"--Jacket
