This book is all about learning to become a competent narrowboat captain. The book is part adventure story and part training manual. It's essentially 'learn by example' via a collection of twenty narrowboat journeys that took place over the period 2005 to 2020 when Covid forced their end. The book is not a travelogue. All the locations mentioned have excellent descriptions and images online and elsewhere. No, it's a piece about family and friends and their adventures on hired narrowboats. It's about the pleasures of spending a week or two aboard these quaint craft. It's about recovering from mistakes and learning from those experiences. And finally, it's about living in the moment in a parallel universe as glorious British countryside drifts by at less than four miles per hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 326\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.73 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 15, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47400251949305,"sku":"9781835635032","price":31.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/HSPI3iNWxw9781835635032.webp?v=1770353719","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/narrowboat-insights-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
