Bare Barging in Burgundy:Boating, Exploring, Wining & Dining

I bought this book because I have been day dreaming about taking a barging vacation. I would recommend this book for anyone considering renting a barge in France, but has no knowledge of the subject. The book is a great starting point, touching on the basics of barging, without going into too much detail. The reader will get a general idea of what barging is like from the author's one chapter description of his weeklong journey. Although the book is small (a little over 100 pages), it "touches" on the history, places of interest, and the food and wine of Burgundy. It is a great little travel book that really gives you the feeling of France. If the author succeeded in "whetting your appetite" for more information on France (no pun, intended) he does provide a lot of references for further reading.
