Summary: You need this book if you've got kids
Comment: Not that you want to tie your children up, or give them information on the best way to tie you up, but because you'll learn how to tie shoelaces that not only don't come undone, but that can be untied with a single pull!

If you've got kids you know what that means. You'll be freed from many years of slavery to retying shoes or trying to get double-knotted shoes untied.

This information alone is worth the price of admission. Admittedly, there are a lot of knots that Mr. and Ms. everyday (like me) will never use but we all need some more useless information to add to our storehouse of knowledge.

(Actually I give this book 3.5 stars but can't figure out how, if there is a way, to do it.)

Summary: Great book on Knots for begining sailors
Comment: I got this book to teach a beginning sailor the basic knots. It is great. The die cut board pages show what the knot is supposed to look like when done. The directions are easy and clear. In fact after reading it I've changed the knot I tie my shoes with. Even us old salts can learn a trick or two. The instructions are much clearer than those in my old boy scout manual. In general the Klutz titles are well done books and this one fits right in with the rest. Sending your kid to sailing school? Get them this book first. They will be ahead of the game and can focus on the aspects of sailing which are hard to teach from a book, wind direction, where to go etc.

Summary: Great for learning all the basic knots, great reference
Comment: I knew nothing about knots besides tying my shoelaces (and the book showed me a better way to do even THAT). This book is great because it gives you 24 of the most basic knots to tie (out of supposedly 4000 in existence) and gives you step-by-step instructions alongside thick-cardboard die-cut pages with a couple long strings to practice with. I've used it as a reference many many times since buying it.
