This book is widely considered the best manual ever produced on rigging the sailing ship. It is based on the extensively revised and updated 1848 edition prepared by Captain George Biddlecombe, a Master in the Royal Navy and former merchant seaman. The book is divided into five parts: \n\u003cbr\u003eThe \n\u003ci\u003eFirst Part\u003c\/i\u003e contains an alphabetical explanation of terms and phrases used in rigging. The \n\u003ci\u003eSecond Part\u003c\/i\u003e consists of directions for the performance of operations incidental to rigging and preparing it on shore, with a table of the comparative strength of chain and rope. The \n\u003ci\u003eThird Part\u003c\/i\u003e contains the progressive method of rigging ships. The \n\u003ci\u003eFourth Part\u003c\/i\u003e contains a description of reeving the running rigging and bending the sails in addition to the rigging of brigs, yachts, and small vessels. The \n\u003ci\u003eFifth Part\u003c\/i\u003e comprises tables of the quantities and dimensions of the standing and running rigging of ships, brigs, fore-and-aft schooners, and cutters, with the species, size, and number of blocks, hearts, dead-eyes, etc. \n\u003cbr\u003eSerious modelists, naval historians, armchair skippers -- any sailing buff -- will want to own a copy of \n\u003ci\u003eThe Art of Rigging.\u003c\/i\u003e Complete and wonderfully clear, it is now available in its first inexpensive paperback edition.
