The Royal Canal: The complete story
Description:
The Royal Canal is a detailed illustrated account from the canal's origin in 1789 through all its phases to the present day. The book traces the story of the construction of the canal, its passenger boat service, trade boats, canal-side industries and its fight for survival in competition with the railway which runs parallel to the canal from Dublin to Mullingar. The canal's decline led to its closure in 1961. However in 1974 a voluntary group set about restoring it thus ensuring the survival of this national amenity for generations to come. The story is told of how they saved this almost forgotten waterway. Although the book is written for the general reader, it is also a valuable reference work containing tables of tonnage carried, revenue earned, the names of the boatmen who used the canal, and a list of the first subscribers.
