Book review

The Narrowboat Lad by Daniel Mark Brown

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Dan has been loving walking and cycling in his local area for many years and decides he would just love to live independently on the local canals. So this is the story of the pleasures and anxieties of his first year of narrowboat ownership.

I loved the descriptions of his boat, Tilly, and the canals which he travelled. I shared his concern at the constantly overheating engine, and I wanted to hug his family and friends for all the wonderful support they offered.

At the end of the year, we are left in no doubt that Dan made the best choice, and I look forward to reading more about his adventures.
