"Exploring its history from prehistoric times to the present day, the reader is drawn into an extraordinary world, learning about the fishes that swim in the river and the boats that ply its surface; about floods and tides; hauntings and suicides; miasmas and malaria; locks, weirs and embankments; bridges, docks and palaces. Peter Ackroyd has a genius for digging out the most surprising and entertaining details, and for writing about them in the most magisterial prose; the result is a wonderfully readable and captivating guide to this extraordinary river and the towns and villages which line it." Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography. xvi [9], 4-481 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards.
