The book brings to life, in vivid color and charming detail, canal barges and the people, villages, geography and history of the canals, along with the joys and tribulations of living aboard a seventy foot long, sixty year old, floating iron pied-a-terre―while renovating it. A book to be savored anytime you would really rather be somewhere else.The author has more than thirty years of experience living aboard, overhauling and sailing boats ranging from an ocean going ketch through a Maine lobster boat to...Betty's Barge.
