The Thames - A Sketch-BookPaperback, 28 November 2014

Originally published in 1921, this work contains a series of sketches made by the author of the beautiful scenery to be found along the banks of the River Thames. The River Thames takes its name from the Middle English Temese, which is derived from the Celtic name for river. Originating at the Thames Head in Gloucestershire, it is the longest river in England, flowing a total length of 236 miles, out through the Thames Estuary and in to the North Sea. On its journey to open water it passes through the country's capital, London, where it is deep enough to be navigable for ships, thus allowing the city to become a major international trade port.
