Title : The River of Hope - Volume 1 - Christian Signol - Book
Summary :
At the beginning of the 19th century, the Dordogne was one of the most beautiful waterway routes. Boatmen, fishermen, ferrymen: all loved this river that provided them with a living, this goddess who dispensed fortune and misery, this jealous lover who sometimes held one of their own captives...

Drawn into conflicts between great merchants, the victim of a plot, Benjamin would be separated from those he loved and his fiancée, Marie. But the great river also carried happiness...
"The truth and accuracy of detail, the poetic precision of place and time plunge beings and things into an eternity which is, itself, the lot of true novelists." Le Quotidien de Paris
