The book is an odyssey from the source of the Thames, near Kemble in Gloucestershire, to its mouth at Southend-on-Sea in Essex, revealing the powerful connection the Romans had to the river Tamesis as it was. On the journey, the author stops at towns and villages that were Roman settlements, as well as London, examining their function and highlighting notable finds and visits local museums that exhibit some of the artefacts found in the settlements along the Thames. The book is illustrated with examples of Roman artefacts together with pictures of archaeological excavations and other points of interest along the river route.
This fascinating story of the Roman heritage of the River Thames along its length will interest all those who know the river, who are visiting places nearby and those wish to know more about the history of the river and England itself.
