Scale 1:4 000 000- enlargement on reverse, with unprecedented detail, covering Dublin to Bratislava on the Danube scale 1:1 500 000. Includes a brief description of waterways in each country, followed by addresses of waterway authorities, boating associations etc. The directory describes the waterway network country by country and provides a mass of information of value to all those who are interested in inland navigation as a mode of transport, but also, for a growing number of enthusiasts - a way of life.
