Overview

In "Bare Barging in Burgundy," Erasmus Kloman combines a narrative travelogue with practical how-to-do-it instructions. He tells readers what they need to know about taking a barge trip -- including how to determine which barge company to procure, what supplies to bring on board, and how to maneuver the locks encountered on the trip. At the same time, he lyrically describes the romance of travel in Burgundy - it's remarkable history, breathtaking architecture, its wines, and hearty cuisine. A wonderful resource guide for anyone contemplating a barge trip or those who just want to vicariously experience the beauty and tranquility of the French countryside.
