It's been in publication for over 50 years, and hopefully it will continue to be re-released, but Royce's Sailing Illustrated should be standard gear for *any* new boater... or even seasoned sailors for that matter. There's a reasons it's often referred to as, "The sailing bible". The ease of reading and following what, at some times, can be otherwise boring or complicated stuff, is what makes Royce's so good. The illustrations are excellent and simple enough for anyone to follow. It was recommenced to me when I first began sailing over 30 years ago, and I've passed it on to many since... A must if you want to learn to sail or simply brush up on your knowledge.

Dunno what happened to the copy I bought many years ago, however it was a delight to revisit Royce's book. Even after 35 years of sailing, I learn a few more tidbits of sailing thanks to this book. There is a lot of information to absorb so I find the book most enjoyable by reading maybe just one or two pages at a sitting, similar to eating fine chocolates, leaving some goodness for later. For the most part, the book is a fantastic reference. I found one annoyance and I cannot understand why the content of a book would be printed with a light blue colored text. I find the lightly colored text difficult to read, too little contrast. Also, I would rather have seen contemporary sailing expounded upon rather than digressing back to the tall ships, trivia, though some people might find this to be of interest. Still, a must book for all who enjoy sailing.

Great book. I keep one on the boat and 2 at home. Very useful. The used one I purchased was just like new.

I've never sailed, but bought this to understand what was going on in the rigging as I read Two Years Before the Mast, and have since found it an invaluable companion in reading such books as In the Heart of the Sea, The Loss of the Ship Essex, the Patrick O'Brian Aubrey/Maturin books and others. Much to my surprise, the book included diagrams of the Pilgrim in which Dana sailed and some of the other ships mentioned in Dana's book, and of the Essex as well. Many of the wide variety of sailing ships mentioned in O'Brian are also shown. Fascinating reference to deepen the understanding of this literature.

I buy a copy for everyone I introduce to sailing. My children, grandchildren and now a friend who has just purchased his first boat. This book is the basic book on sailing and it should be on sailors bookshelf.

When learning any new skill, the first order of business is learning the jargon or terminology. Sail boating is rich in traditional jargon, and helps the beginner to understand, not just the words but basic concepts and theory of sailing.Royce's Sailing Illustrated, Vol. 1: The Sailors Bible Since '56 is truely the Bible of sailing, teaching the jargon with wonderful illustrations that are easy to understand. Aboard Sail Holy Grail in Kona Hawaii, we use this as our beginning textbook. See [...] for more information.
