Back cover
The Royal Rope Making Factory, the jewel of the Rochefort naval dockyard, was a brilliant expression of Louis XIV's era and a pre-industrial, architectural masterpiece. It fabricated, during the days of naval sailing ships, the ropes which were required by the warships of the western fleet.
How were the ropes constructed? Why such length? How did they, in those days, carry out the spinning of the hemp, the twisting of the strands and the tarring of the ropes?
