Product Description

Synopsis
Recommended by British Waterways, this newly researched guide gives complete coverage of the inland waterways network. Featuring 4-colour Ordnance Survey mapping, with facilities and towpaths clearly shown, and comprehensive navigational notes. Navigational notes include: * planning a cruise, * using a lock and bridges, * winding holes, * boatyards and local services. Also: * the history of each canal, * places of interest, * pubs and restaurants, * opportunities for walking and cycling. Practical spiral binding makes the guide easy-to-use. A flap around the foredge clearly identifies the guide and provides for better display in retail outlets. Rival publications cover one canal or canal-ring only. Nicholson guides have logical groupings of waterways: all recognised circular routes are contained within single editions. Newly restored canals also included. Waterways covered in this guide -- Aire & Calder Navigation, Chesterfield Canal, River Derwent, Fossdyke & Witham Navigations, Ripon Canal, River Ure and River Ouse, Pocklington Canal, Selby Canal, Sheffield & South Yorkshire Navigation, River Trent.

2.0 out of 5 stars An excellent concept, unfortunately very poorly executed, 16 May 2001
By A Customer
This applies to all 7 of the Nicholsons waterway guides: The use of OS maps to put the waterways in the landscape context is excellent, and the maps are clear and easy to follow. They are the only cruising guides available which cover the entire linked system, which gives them a monopoly - an unfortunate position which the allows the publishers to rest on their laurels somewhat. Unfortunately, the guides are FULL of errors, often not corrected between revisions, despite many readers' letters to the publishers and a dedicated independent errors website run by readers, being freely available for some years. Such errors can be as basic as missing out locks (which have, after all, only been in existence for 200 or so years)! There is also an odd obsession with describing local churches in detail, to the detriment of space for more useful information for boaters such as laundrettes, public transport links etc. If you need coverage of the entire system, this is the only guide series you can use (if you want to stick to the same one), but please beware all the errors and let the publishers know when you have been misled! You have been warned!
