8 of 8 people found the following review helpful: Not Really A Travel Book., August 30, 2003 Reviewer: A readerI guess I should've read the other review more closely... I was expecting a book that talked a lot about barging, with a little bit about history and food/wine. Instead, I got page after page of history and recipes and wine, and barely a mention of either the practicalities (how to rent a barge, navigate a lock, travel through France if you don't speak much French...) or realities (what life is like spending a week on a small boat with 6 other people!) of a barge trip. The emphasis was most definitely on the 'wining and dining' part of the title, NOT the 'bare boat barging' part. This one is going back.
