Thanks for writing.  I believe you saw the filler Rick Steves’ Barging in Burgundy.   Here is the link to the filler on YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xJEKI_Lj_E that may give you the information you are looking for.
 
Traveling by barge is definitely on my bucket list!  The book you read sounds intriguing – I will have to look into that.
 
Thanks again for sharing.
 
Have a super day!
 
Sincerely,

RE:  Rick Steves’ Europe #206 “Amsterdam and Dutch Sidetrips”
 
Please visit Rick’s website where you can find the following excerpt:
Amsterdam's Dutch Theater, which was used as an assembly hall for local Jews destined for Nazi concentration camps, is a powerful memorial. On the wall, 6,700 family names represent the 104,000 Jews deported and killed by the Nazis. The nearby Jewish Historical Museum — four historic synagogues joined together by steel and glass to make one modern complex — tells the story and struggles of Judaism through the ages.
While Hitler controlled Europe, each country had a courageous, if small, resistance movement. All over Europe you'll find streets and squares named after the martyrs of the resistance. Any history buff or champion of the underdog will be inspired by the patriotism documented in Europe's Nazi-resistance museums — the most extensive is Amsterdam's Dutch Resistance Museum. You'll see propaganda movie clips, study a forged ID card under a magnifying glass, and read of ingenious, daring efforts to hide local Jews from the Germans. Oslo's Norwegian Resistance Museum (Norges Hjemmefrontmuseum) andCopenhagen'sMuseum of Danish Resistance (Frihedsmuseet) are also fascinating, as is the Museum of Deportation and the Resistance in Mechelen, Belgium.

Thank you for your inquiry.
I think what you saw was Rick Steve’s: Croatia’s  Plitvice Lakes National Parks.
Please click on the links below for more info:

The Plitvice Lakes National Park was granted UNESCO World Heritage status in 1979 and is located roughly halfway between capital city Zagreb and Zadar on the coast of Croatia.
Hope this is what you were looking for.
All the Best,
Joan
