The Historic ThamesPaperback, 11 February 2015

This work by Anglo-French writer and historian Hilaire Belloc was originally published in 1907. It is a wonderfully written portrait of one of the most important rivers in England, the River Thames. It follows the river upstream from London to its source in the Cotswolds, detailing the society and surroundings that grace its banks. This is a fantastic read for any fans of Belloc's writings, or anyone interested in the history of the Thames at the turn of the 20th century. To compliment the republication of this text, a brand new short introduction on the River Thames has been added.
