Many of the best areas in England are along the Thames River. Beginning as its source in the Cotswolds, the river drifts tranquilly through beautiful countryside featuring quaint villages like Clifton Hampton, renowned for its thatched roofed houses. It passes historic cities like Oxford, acclaimed for its distinguished university, Windsor, the home of an ancient royal palace, and Hampton Court, the residence of King Henry IV. In London, it flows next to Kew Gardens, the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, the London Eye, Globe Theatre, the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Greenwich and the Thames Barrier. Pursing his passion for rivers, the author walks the 184-mile length of the river along the Thames Path with four companions. Despite some hardships along the trail, he discovers that his joy for the flowing water is one of his most meaningful pleasures.
