Product Description

Product Description
This pictorial study of the Burcough boatmen is a fascinating insight into the lives of those who navigated the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. These people, as the reader will come to realise, were a unique community with their own special characteristics, customs and way of life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Burscough Boatmen, 6 Oct 2005
By Jennifer P Garner (Great Britain) - See all my reviews
I read this book last year, and was thrilled to see my greatgrangfather and mother's names appear in the list of marriges, it gave a valuable insight into life on the canal.
The only down side I feel were, no links to go elsewhere for more information, on boat names, old maps of the area, tracing who owned what boats. valuable information for tracing your family tree.
