Book Reviews of New Complete Sailing Manual
Book Review: A superb book for the beginner - highly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
Coming back into sailing after many years, we looked for a book to help brush up our skills and chose The Complete Sailing Manual. It has become well thumbed. The book provides detailed information on every type of sailing from small dinghys to larger cruising yachts in a most informative manner. There are lots of diagrams and pictures to illustrate the points being made. It is also written in such a way that you can read it from cover to cover, or dip into it as circumstances dictate. It has been avidly read by all, from aged 10 to aged 78! The author also responded very promptly to email enquiries when we were considering the purchase of a yacht. A book which comes highly recommended
