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 ?
