A Tale Of The Thames is a novel written by Joseph Ashby-Sterry and first published in 1896. The story is set in London and follows the adventures of a young man named Cyril who falls in love with a beautiful woman named Rosalind. Cyril is a struggling artist who lives on the banks of the Thames River, and Rosalind is the daughter of a wealthy businessman who lives in a grand mansion overlooking the river.As Cyril and Rosalind's romance blossoms, they encounter a host of colorful characters who inhabit the river and its surroundings, including fishermen, boatmen, and other artists. However, their happiness is threatened by Rosalind's father, who disapproves of their relationship and tries to keep them apart.The novel offers a vivid portrait of life along the Thames during the late 19th century, with detailed descriptions of the river, its boats, and its inhabitants. It also explores themes of class, love, and the conflict between tradition and modernity.Overall, A Tale Of The Thames is a charming and engaging novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into London's past and the people who lived and worked along the river.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
