Jerry Turner – The Burgundy Line
SOLOTHURN, OBERGOESGEN, SWITZERLAND, April 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The latest work from Jerry Turner, “The Burgundy Line,” will hit bookstores in the USA and UK in April.
The Burgundy Line is a compelling travel memoir focused on the peculiar joy of moving at a snail’s pace through the historic canals of France aboard a vintage 1970s cruiser. The narrative charts a rhythmic course starting from the waters of Alsace, winding through Mulhouse and Montbéliard, down the twisting Doubs, and onto the wide Saône before turning, weeks later, to head upstream once more. It is a record of days shaped by quiet encounters with herons and the therapeutic rhythm of life on the water. Here, the smell of fresh coffee at dawn and the steady, reassuring sound of the engine make the journey feel real for the reader.
Drawing on Turner’s decades of nautical adventures as a “young at heart” traveler with an incurable love of nautical adventures, “The Burgundy Line” is more than just a travel record; it is an antidote to the modern rush. Readers seeking an escape from the mundane challenges of daily life will be captivated by this boating canal adventure holiday aboard Betsy. The book provides a “salty” and frequently gripping look at life on a boat in France, where the clatter and hum of a 1976 cruiser meet the serenity of the river.
This memoir is a “must-stock” for the travel or lifestyle section of retailers. It appeals to a wide demographic—from armchair travellers seeking the sensory magic of water to slow-travel enthusiasts and nautical adventurers eager to explore the historic waterways of France. “The Burgundy Line” offers an irresistible, immersive journey into the heart of the French countryside.
“At its heart, it’s about the peculiar joy of moving slowly, noticing small details, and remembering that sometimes, doing ‘nothing’ on the water means doing everything that matters,” says author Jerry Turner.
