The New Encyclopedia of Knots / Derek E. Avery by Derek E. Avery

Replacement book. Original destroyed camping this summer from a rain storm as it was left in my boat. I've had it for sometime and used as needed. Found it very helpful with explaining the knots, showing diagrams of how they are done and the purpose they serve. Very good reference guide.
