Book
Britain's rivers deserve to be better known. Teeming with wildlife, steeped in history, sporting bridges, docks and stunning architecture, not to mention supporting riverside pubs, waterways museums and a variety of places of interest, they are the country's essential arteries, connecting inland Britain with the sea. This title celebrates England's inland rivers which have been improved for navigation, initially for commercial use, but now mostly carrying leisure craft.
