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.

Writer & slow adventurer Jasper Winn spent a year exploring Britain`s waterways on foot & by bike, in a kayak & on narrowboats.
