ABOUT
H.A. Calahan was a lieutenant commander in the United States Navy and an author on sailing.
In this book every type of fore-and-aft rigged yacht is considered - from a dinghy to a three-masted schooner. Every line of running rigging from a simple main sheet to a brail or grab line on a genoa jib. Every wire of standing rigging, from a bob-stay to a triatic stay, from stream-lined rod shrouds to spreader lifts and jib-nettings.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, fine line illustrations, diagrams.
