Description - London from the Thames by Angelo Hornak
For centuries the River Thames was London's main thoroughfare, and many famous landmarks line its banks. The Tower of London, The Houses of Parliament, Somerset House and Chelsea Hospital all present their most imposing aspect to the river. This volume takes the reader on a boat trip through London, exploring this fascinating waterway and the history of the buildings and monuments on its banks. Angelo Hornak's photographs offer a view of the river from the Thames Barrier in the east to Hampton Court in the west, and are accompanied by engravings which put the Thames in historical perspective. These include views of the Tower of London in the 16th century and a Ponte Vecchio-style Old London Bridge with its houses and shops.
