註釋It may not be the longest, deepest or widest river in the world, but few bodies of water reveal as much about a nations past and present, or are suggestive of its future, as Englands River Thames. Through quiet meadows, rolling hills, leafy suburbia, industrial sites and a changing London riverside, Mick Sinclair tracks the Thames from source to sea, documenting internationally- known landmarks such as Tower Bridge and Windsor Castle and revealing lesser known features such as Godstow Abbey, Canvey Island, and George Orwells tranquil grave.
