Description

The Swansea region was one of the earliest intensive industrial landscapes in the modern world and at its centre was a Canal authorised by Act of Parliament (1794) providing a transport system that enabled a series of international industries to develop and thrive - copper, iron and steel, tinplate, and coal. This waterway was the central artery of a larger circulation system that included a railway network using a variety of early steam locomotives. This book charts the history and importance of the canal which ran for over 16 miles (26km) from the port of Swansea to Aber-craf. This new history of the Swansea Canal is a large-format book of over 300 pages and is beautifully illustrated with over 100 specially prepared reconstruction drawings by the author which show what the Canal originally looked like and how it operated.
