Books By Anthony Sanctuary - Author

The late Anthony Sanctuary, FCIS, was born into the rope and net making trade of Bridport in Dorset. After naval service during the Second World War he took up his career in the Bridport industry in 1948, gaining factory, design, sales and commercial experience before becoming company secretary and training director of what is now Bridport-Gundry plc. He learned the craft of linemaking at a time when Bridport still had line or rope walks and his knowledge of net making and rigging was gathered and put into practice in many parts of the world.
