A photographic history of the Thames River, selected from the photos of the National Monuments Record. (The National Monuments Record was established in 1941 to address documenting historic buildings before Nazi bombardment destroyed them; in addition to original photographs of that time period, it also collected historic photographs and prints.) Each photo is accompanied by descriptive text and identifies the photographer and year, when these are known. While the photos focus on London, the entire length of the Thames is represented. 8¾ x 11 inches oblong, 208 pages. Heavy book; additional postage will be required.
