What''''s the best book on sailing for beginners
Bob Bond''s, The Handbook of Sailing, is also excellent. I consider The Annapolis Book of Seamanship to be the anchor of any sailing library. Steve Colgate''s books are very good. And US Sailing''s Certification Series - Basic Keelboat, Basis Cruising, and Bareboat Cruising - are very good for beginners. Best is the seat of your britches on the windward rail of a dinghy.
