- Graumont, Raoul and Hohn Hensel. ENCYCLOPEDIA OF KNOTS AND FANCY ROPE WORK. Centreville. 1952. 4th Edition. 704 p. Truly comprehensive in scope, this encyclopedia begins with a history of knots and rope making, and proceeds into the how-to of tying and of the making of maritime knots, hitches and fancy rope work. More than 3,600 knots are described and illustrated in 348 full page photo plates. Truly the ‘Britannica’ of the subject, I have used and enjoyed this manual many times. Truly a must for the yachtsman or maritime historian. (M). $39.95.
