Book - At the Heart of the Waterways

by David Blagrove.

This is the story of over 200 years in the life of a small village in Northamptonshire, Brauinston, which, to the people of the canals, is as important as Swindon or Crewe once were to the railwaymen.

This book traces the story of the canals, boatyards, carrying companies and above all people, which makes up a fascinating kaleidoscope of social history now well into its third century.

Hard back. 96 pages. 16.1cms x 24.1cms approx. Illustrated with colour & black and white photographs. 3rd edition 2003.
