5.0 out of 5 stars canal maps, 30 Oct 2009
By Mr. A. Guy (Penistone, Sth Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having just purchased a 1/12 share of a narrowboat I am eagerly planning my first owner outing. The Nicholson guide is clear, understandable and an enjoyable read as maps go. The price was reasonable and its accuracy will be tested the first week in December!

3.0 out of 5 stars Four counties and Welsh canals, 5 Oct 2009
By Mr. B. Noton (Wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The info may be all there but is not clear as the book tries to serve all canal users and not just boaters - hence even unopened canals are on the maps and it often requires study to find out what is and is not navigable,

probably the most informative when planning a cruise. Not always easy to follow the route through the book, but once into the logic, much easier. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Nicholson Waterways guide No. 4
Excellent details on navigation, points of interest, distances etc. in a handy easy to use format. And the price from Amazon was very good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Four Counties
The type is on the small side so is more difficult for older people to read. The route is in a counter clockwise direction and again is a little confusing. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Waterways Guides
These Collins/Nicholson's Guides are excellent. I only wish they would produce them in two directions i.e. clockwise AND anticlockwise on rings!
