It is for free too, you can download from>Interhet archive >> https://archive.org/details/youngseaofficers00leve/mode/2up The Elements and Practice of Rigging And Seamanship, 1794, by David Steel, is a comprehensive English textbook of rigging, seamanship and naval tactics. A key reference for those interested in the age of Nelson. Although at times difficult because of its fine detail, it will reward those that search through it to understand the technology of the era. It s available online for free > https://maritime.org/doc/steel/ < at the end ..this rope is really >tack<
