Sling for Sport and Survival
Cliff Savage
BREAKOUT PRODUCTIONS, 1999
Fantastic!
This is a really cool book! I think it is more of a pamphlet though. I have already made twenty seven of these deadly weapons. They are so portable and easy to use. And the best part- you can find ammuntion almost anywhere.

Ropes, Knots and Slings for Climbers
Walt Wheelock
La Siesta Pr, 1967
Ropes, Knots and Slings for Climbers
A classic in the climbing field, an older book - (1940's, possibly - I don't have my copy in front of me). Especially interesting are the references to the now old-fashioned laid climbing rope (like Goldline), and knots that are used with laid rope. Wheelock also ...

Slings And Arrows: Theater In My Life
Robert Lewis
Applause Books, 2000
Bravo for the late, great Bobby!
I studied acting with Bobby Lewis back in 1978, which was a great experience. This book is the next best thing resurrecting Bobby. Bobby didn't write about his personal life in this book. It is subtitled "The Theatre in My Life" and that's what the book is about. ...

A must have for any Billy Bob fan

Amazing technique - and you can learn it!
This book provides all you need to know to begin making amazing braids. No tools required - just this book and some good thread. Takes a while to follow to begin with, but the diagrams are very useful, and the braiding notation system is very clever.
