Book excerpt: Complete and simple directions for making the most useful and ornamental knots, adapted for the use of travelers, campers, sailors, scouts, and all others who handle ropes.As to the utility of knots and rope work there can be no question. In a thousand ways and times, a knowledge of rope and knots is useful, and many times necessary. Many an accident has occurred through a knot or splice being improperly formed, and even in tying an ordinary bundle or "roping" a trunk or box, few people tie a knot that is secure and yet readily undone and quickly made. In a life of travel and adventure in out-of-the-way places, in yachting or boating, in hunting or fishing, and even in motoring, to command a number of good knots and splices is to make life safer, easier, and more enjoyable, aside from the pleasure one may find in learning the art of knot-tying.

Download or read book Knots Splices and Rope Work written by A. Hyatt Verrill and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of ropes and knots is so dim and ancient that really little is known of their origin. That earliest man used cordage of some kind and by his ingenuity succeeded in tying the material together, is indisputable, for the most ancient carvings and decorations of prehistoric man show knots in several forms. Doubtless the trailing vines and plants first suggested ropes to human beings; and it is quite probable that these same vines, in their various twistings and twinings, gave man his first idea of knots. Since the earliest times knots have been everywhere interwoven with human affairs; jugglers have used them in their tricks; they have become almost a part of many occupations and trades, while in song and story they have become the symbol of steadfastness and strength.

Book excerpt: A. Hyatt Verrill was an American zoologist, explorer, inventor, illustrator and author. He wrote several books on different topics including: natural history, travel, radio and whaling. In this book he gives a brief history of knots, followed by a practical treatise: why some knots are good and strong, and some are not; what knots to use for this and for that, and what should not be used; "giving complete and simple directions for making all the most useful and ornamental knots in common use, with chapters on splicing, pointing, seizing, serving, etc. Adapted for the use of travelers, campers, yachtsmen, boy scouts, and all others having to use or handle ropes for any purpose."This book comes with 150 illustrations showing how each knot, tie or splice is formed and its appearance when complete; with six additional illustrations of halters for horses.If the directions given for each knot, tie or splice is followed closely, all knots, ties and splices: Overhand and Figure-eight Knots; Square and Reef Knots; Open-hand and Fishermen's Knots; Half-hitch and Chain Hitches; Bow-line Knots; Short and Long Splices, etc., should be able to be reproduced: some with a little practice, some with ease; for many have already found the use of his explanations and illustrations useful.This book is not a facsimile or a photographic reproduction of the original, where the pages might be blurred or crooked, but a typed, copied and reprint of the original; keeping the original flow of sentence structure and paragraphs; yet with the images of illustrations being sized and more inline with the sentence as they are mentioned.
