A charming and insightful exploration of the amazing architecture and engineering wonders that surround Britain's inland waterways.In Britain's Canals, two inland waterways experts and muchloved authors come together to produce the definitive word on the manmade wonders that make Britain's canals so special, so loved and enjoyed by so many. They explore features from the aweinspiring 30lock flight on the Worcester and Birmingham Canal, to the downright delightful chocolatebox lockkeeper's cottages that line the cut of every canal, to masterpieces such as the 18arch Pontcysyllte aqueduct, the highest aqueduct in the world, to beautiful bridges, grand company buildings, the social hubs that were, and still are, canalside pubs, plus so much more.In contrast to many inland waterways books which are organised geographically by canal, Britain's Canals is structured thematically, with chapters on The Line (the shape of the canal itself), Locks, Lockkeeper's Cottages, Bridges, Aqueducts, Lifts and Planes, Company Buildings, Wharves, Basins and Quays and finally (and perhaps most importantly) the Canalside Pub. Each chapter explores how these features were created and have changed through history, right through to the present, with plenty of ideas for places to visitplus full information on how to get to them. An abundance of fullcolor photography throughout, both historical and modernday, will delight readers and inspire them to explore Britain's wondrous inland waterways, whether on boat, by foot or by bike.
