  This title illustrates Birmingham's canal heritage, the development of these canals and the city's role as an inland port over a 150 year period. This selection of captioned photographs presents changes to the canal system in detail. They represent potted histories. The book serves as a pictorial survey that traces the change from industrial use to the canal city of the present day. It should be of interest not only to the boating faternity but to all who live and work in the bustling city of Birmingham and share an interest in their city environment.
