Joan Tucker's first history of the Thames ferries covered the London reaches, from Staines to the sea. This second book starts at the source in Gloucestershire and follows the river down past Oxford and Windsor to complete the journey. The richness of the documentary history from old deeds and Acts is paralleled by the stories and accounts of earlier travels. All the sites have been visited and are described as they survive.
