Maidens' Trip (note correct use of the apostrophe) is a fictionalised account of her WW2 service on the English canals. A crew of 3 women took a pair of cargo-carrying narrow boats along the canals and cuts. Living conditions were cramped and the work was physically hard, but there was the companionship of fellow crew members and interesting encounters with others working on or by the canals, as well as the changing countryside.
