Description

Step aboard Boater, a mesmerising voyage along the tranquil waterways of England, written by UK Canal Laureate, Jo Bell.

From her mooring in Macclesfield in the north-west of England to the storied Bristol Channel, Jo invites readers to join her on a 30-day odyssey, beginning with the end of a tempestuous relationship and echoing a journey previously taken by LTC Rolt, a legendary engineer and advocate of the waterways.

In this exquisitely crafted memoir, Jo Bell seamlessly weaves together personal anecdotes with the rich tapestry of British waterway culture. As a trained archaeologist and seasoned boater, Jo offers unparalleled insights into the lives of those who call the waterways their home, inviting readers to delve into the depths of its history, culture and society along the banks.
