4.0 out of 5 stars a pleased customer, 10 Feb 2001

By A Customer

This is one of Walker's great tactics books. I read it shortly after reading "advanced racing tactics" and found them quite alike. Although the book is thorough and clear, it isn't quite as good as "positioning". I would well recomend it to any sailing reader in search of improvement, it helped me!
