Back Door to Byzantium

To the Black Sea by the Great Rivers of Europe

Bill and Laurel Cooper

This eagerly awaited sequel to Watersteps Round Europe is the spellbinding story of the Coopers' voyage by barge from the North Sea, eastbound across flooded France, down the Rhine and on the Danube to the Black Sea.

As if floods, whirlpools, and groundings were not enough, vandals cast them off in Germany, and the flooding Danube swept them downstream at breakneck speed. They crossed the Yugoslav border on the very day that war broke out and they evaded diesel pirates, only to become bogged down in the massive bureaucracy of Bulgaria, Romania and the Ukraine, where sailing your boat is not yet a citizen's right.
