An invaluable source or reference for both long-distance walkers and cyclists, and those who simply enjoy ambling by water. It covers the full 365km Nantes Brest towpath route across Brittany. A full introduction traces the history of the canal from its origins in Napoleonic times and construction early in the 19th century, through a brief economic heyday and tragic decline, to today�s role as an outstanding leisure resource. The main part of the book gives a section by section analysis of the canal, indicating the towpath route, locks, road junctions and towns and villages on the way.
