The Quiet Waters By (Working Waterways Series)

The Quiet Waters By, the seventh book in the 'Working Waterways' series, describes the colourful experiences of a young man who worked as a Thames lock-keeper, while also running a narrow-boat carrying company. His recollections of the Thames Conservancy, Salters' Steamers, and taking the Skinners to the reopening of the Stratford-on-Avon Canal vividly recapture the waterway scene in the early 1960s.
