Nautical books, sailing magazines, publishers

Here on Sailingahead.com, I have an extensive collection of sailing books reviewed for you. If you can't find there what you are looking for, you might want to check with specialist publishers. There are several ones the concentrate on nautical publications, such as cruising guides, maps and charts, or books on the history of sailing.

The following links should help you to identify publishing companies that try to meet every sailor's need. Have fun with this selection and let me know if you want others to be included!
