Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Book of the Thames, From Its Rise to Its Fall
We shall be, indeed, repaid largely if we are the means of inducing travels AT home - to natural beauties, surely not less delightful because of comparatively easy access - to scenes that are associated with glorious memories, and are wholesome and honourable stimulants - to places, such as the banks of the liver Thames, where every step is a reminder that we live in a free land, under the sway of a sovereign to whom every subject of every degree, while rendering obedience as a sacred duty, offers the homage of the heart.
