## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great if You Like the Nitty Gritty of Infrastructure
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2012*

Stan and Trevor Yorke are the great explainers of English infrastructure.  They have produced a number of great books about English architecture and infrastructure as part of the "England's Lving History" series.  These are wonderful books for all those who love the details of how infrastructure works.  If you are looking for a general history of the English canal system, look somewhere else.  But if you want to know about the little details of how locks and canals work, this is your book.  Both Yorkes are solid illustrators and good writers.  Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Short but interesting
  

*by R***H on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2021*

Trying to learn about narrowboats and living on the 'cut' without breaking the bank buying reading materials, this book seemed an easy choice. Stan Yorke is a good, knowledgeable writer who brought interesting, new facts to familiar topics. Unfortunately, the information would end too quickly, leaving a want for just a few more pages.This is definitely worth a buy for those completely new to narrowboats or English canals.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Fun and interesting book
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2013*

For those who have never lived in a land with a canal system - this is a book that does a nice job of explaining how and why English canals came into being.
