'Haywood imprints his inimitable humour on his descriptions of the
people and places he meets along the way.' BBC Countryfile magazine
'He conjures up a picture of a different world, filled with
interesting and eccentric people. A cross-section of the best of
middle England, in fact.' The Oxford Times Steve Haywood has been
cruising the inland waterways for fifty years, and has amassed a
following of readers keen to hear about his travelling tales on
Britain's beautiful canals and rivers. His previously published
books - Narrowboat Dreams, One Man and a Narrowboat, Too Narrow to
Swing a Cat and Narrowboat Nomads - have all been hugely enjoyed by
those with a desire for a narrowboat narrative told in Steve's
witty, charming style. Tales from the Tillerman is Steve's tribute
to Britain's canals, rivers and countryside and a celebration of
Britishness in all its eccentric glory. Unlike Steve's previous
titles, which have each focussed on one particular journey that
Steve has taken, Tales from the Tillerman is casting the net wider
and drawing from his full fifty years of experience, recounting the
many hair-raising escapades he's had up and down the country and
reflecting on how the country and the cruising landscape has
changed in those fifty years. Anecdotes and light-hearted rants
aplenty, mixed with some tall tales and a smattering of the
nostalgic, in Tales from the Tillerman you'll be thoroughly
entertained as a middle-aged man (oh, go on then, an old one)
reflects on his long love affair with boats and waterways,
contemplating their importance to his life and how they've changed
it.
