First published in 1944, this book tells the story of how L.T.C. Rolt and his wife fitted out their boat, Cressy, as a home, and journied some 400 miles along the waterways of the Midlands. Rolt recalls the boatmen and their craft and celebrates the English countryside through which they passed.
First published in 1944, this book has been said by many to have started a revival of interest in the English waterways. It was on a spring day in 1939 that L.T.C. Rolt first stepped aboard Cressy. This is the story of how he and his wife adapted and fitted out the boat as a home and recreates the journey of some 400 miles that they made along the network of waterways in the Midlands. It recalls the boatmen and their craft, and celebrates the then seemingly timeless nature of the English countryside through which they passed.
