Bread Upon The Waters
Bread Upon the Waters tells the story of David Blagrove, a boatman who transported coal, timber, hardboard, and cocoa residue on narrowboats during the “great freeze” of 1962-1963 when the canals were frozen. It provides a detailed account of the last years of narrowboat carrying and the challenges faced by the last generation of canal boating families.
