About the Author:
Rob Bowden is a Heinemann-Raintree author.
From Booklist:
The Thames River and its settlements serve as a manageable frame for British history in this title in the new Rivers through Time series. Brief, wide-ranging chapters examine the history and contemporary life of major settlements along the river, including London and Windsor, touching on the founders, industries, and historic events that formed the communities. A wide array of illustrations enhances the text--archival photographs, graphs, and crosssections. The account is bland but serviceable for reports, while the approachable format, with its focus on individual communities, presents history as a continuum that encourages children to look closely at how natural resources shape and influence modern life. Appended sections include a glossary, a time line of British history, and a further resources section with basic Internet search tips. REVWR
