Product Description

For a hundred & fifty years, between the plod of packhorse trains & the arrival of the railways, canals were the high-tech water machine driving the industrial revolution.

Amazing feats of engineering, they carried the rural into the city & the urban into the countryside, & changed the lives of everyone.

And then, just when their purpose was extinguished by modern transport, they were saved from extinction & repurposed as a slow highways network, a peaceful & countrywide haven from our too-busy age.

Today, there are more boats on the canals than in their Victorian heyday.
