Canals in a Changing Britain: Construction, Culture, and Environment, 1760-1968

This book assesses canals as a major technological system re-shaping Britons' relationship with their landscape and environment between 1760 and 1968, and argues this 200-year arc of historical experience is essential to understanding canals as sites of recreation, leisure, heritage, and experience of the natural environment.
