In this 184-page field guide, more than 50 different knots are presented. Both aspects of knot knowledge are given equal time; knot construction (tying the knots) and knot application (using the knots). This information can be quickly grasped because of the lavishly illustrated pages, easy-to-read text and unique cross-reference format. Additionally, because of the book’s compact size it is more likely to be used in the field where needed most.

Knots at Work by Jeff Jepson is a field guide for the modern arborist.
