Perseverance – Dredging the Basingstoke Canal

Perseverance – Dredging the Basingstoke Canal

Perseverance – Dredging the Basingstoke Canal, describes the history of the Society’s old steam dredger, largely in the words of the people who were involved in the project. It starts in 1934 with the building of Dredger No 14 for the Grand Union Canal Company, describes its refurbishment and transfer to the Basingstoke Canal and its restoration to navigability of most of the Hampshire pound. The book ends with Perseverance’s situation today and a vision for the future.
