This is a tale of two worlds: New Hampshire and the early 17th-century English settlers; Massachusetts and the extremely dogmatic souls from there. It is a tale of two lovers, John and Joan, and it is the tale of their son, Will, who travels back to London during the Plague. This engaging novel follows the fortunes of John and Joan and the tribulations caused by their strict 'neighbors' from New Hampshire and tells us about Will and a strange girl called Nan.

Henry Rodolph de Salis took more than a decade to explore the navigable inland waterways of England and Wales. Based on his results and experiences, he created a handbook of inland navigation for manufacturers, merchants, traders, and others. First published in 1904, this book is still one of the most important works in canal literature.Reprint of the original edition.
