Overview
This illustrated guide traces the history of the crossing places along the Thames and relates their origins to local use as well as that of long-distance traders. More than 150 crossings of past and present are covered in this study, which examines their history and paints a vivid picture of life as the river developed and flourished with trade. More cross-country routes formed as trade developed but older river crossings frequently conflicted with river users. All of the bridges featured in this book can be walked to or visited by boat.
