Reader's note

Add a splash of blue to the room with this 1957 first edition of Plain Sailing by Gabor Denes. This is a book with an original approach. No longer is it necessary to pore over bird's-eye plans, instead a series of 130 excellent photographs and a simply written text, which explains technical terms as it goes, take the reader to the waterside and aboard a sailing dinghy. From the time of launching to picking up moorings the reader is a crew member under instruction. Ropework, simple navigation, maintenance, buying a boat, racing and that too often neglected topic - safety - are all featured with compelling directness. the sea!
