Here are two references that are ideal for learning knots (2.3mB).
Hyatt Verrill's Knots, Splices and Rope Work in pdf
http://www.survivorlibrary.com/library/knots-splices-and-rope-work-.pdf
Ashley Book of Knots is a remarkable 638 page 
reference for knots (104mB):

 On tying two ropes together, I would use TWO 
â??improved clinch knots.â?? (My other hobby is 
bass fishing.)   My preference is Palomar knots, 
but thatâ??s  not possible with long ropes.   On 
the clinch knots, tie the first one to make a 
small loop; and the second rope would go through 
the loop and tied with the same type 
knot.   Google â??improved clinch Knotsâ?? to 
see how they are tied to fishing hooks, but you 
can improvise from there.   Very strong knots.
