 Nautical Knots Illustrated by Paul Snyder, Praise for the previous edition: "The book's clear, sequential photographs include all the basics, including bends, splices, and line-handling tips."--"Ocean Navigator "Teaches the 20 most useful knots and splices with wonderful step-by-step photographs. Almost every knot is pictured on two facing pages, so the entire sequence is right before you."--"The Ensign "More than knots, [this book] is about rope and its uses on boats."--"Dockside "Its illustrations on how the knots are tied are among the best I have seen."--"Mariner's Log A wet, pitching deck in a 20-knot "breeze" is not the place to realize you've forgotten exactly how to tie a reef knot. Whether you need to brush up on your ropework skills or you're just learning to sail, "Nautical Knots Illustrated is your perfect companion. With clear, simple explanations and 295 step-by-step photographs, you'll easily learn how to tie the 20 most useful knots and splices.

Longtime sailors Paul and Arthur Snyder also explain the essentials of smart line handling, including how to coil halyards and sheets, fix winch overrides, tow dinghies, and pick up a mooring, as well as the best ways to handle high-tech rope materials, such as Kevlar and Spectra, in addition to Dacron and nylon.
 Spirit Faces: Contemporary Masks of the Northwest Coast by Gary Wyatt, Spirit Faces collects 75 masks by 23 of the best living Native American artists in the Northwest. These beautiful and powerful masks draw on the natural and supernatural worlds to depict such archetypal characters as Eagle, Moon, and Thunderbird. The mask is an important part of ceremonial life on the Northwest Coast. It makes the supernatural world visible in dance dramas performed at feasts and in winter ceremonies held by secret societies. Some masks embody mythology or history, others depict shamanic or human experiences. Each mask pictured here is accompanied by the artist's own words describing its creation and meaning. With an introduction by Gary Wyatt - a leading authority on Native American art of the Northwest - explaining the importance, meaning, and ceremonial use of these masks, and the role of art in First Nations' culture, Spirit Faces is a spectacular look at a vibrant and venerable tradition.
Slip knot - A slip knot (or running knot) is one of two different classes of knot. The most common are knots which attach a line to an object and intentionally tighten when tension is applied to the free end of the line. Oysterman's stopper knot - The Oysterman's stopper knot is a stopper knot tied by making a slip knot in the end of the rope where the standing part pulls the knot out, then place the working end through the loop made by the slip knot. Tighten by pulling on both ends. Mask (Mugbook) - The MASK is the picture directory of Walla Walla College. It takes the form of an annual print edition and an online edition which has been upgraded every year since 1996. Noose - This article is about the simple slip-knot, sometimes known as a noose. For a noose capable of resisting attempts to loosen it, see Hangman's knot.
