Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book surveys the history and development of Britainâs inland waterways, portraying the successes of canals as vital arteries of the Industrial Revolution. It examines how the advent of railways caused their decline and analyses the reasons for their current, reduced position in the UKâs transport system. The author argues that with some significant government action to revitalise the canal network, to bring it in line with modern methods, inland waterways could once more play a crucial role in the nationâs economy.
