Book: Knots at work

Book: Knots at Work by Jeff Jepson. This is Jepson’s most recent publication and best seller – a perfect field guide for the modern arborist!

“No one ties knots more frequently and of such variety than those who work in the tree care profession.”

“In a profession as potentially dangerous as this, only knots that are correctly tied and aptly applied every time will do. Anything less is likely to lead to a short career.”

Learn all about arborist knots with this book, it covers information on both knot construction and application.  You can quickly grasp information from lavishly illustrated pages and easy-to-read text. The unique cross-reference format makes it easy to navigate through the book, and it’s the perfect size to use out in the field where it is needed the most.

Features:

• 184-page field guide
• more than 50 different knots presented
• both aspects of knot knowledge are given equal time—knot construction (tying the knots) and knot application (using the knots).
