The River Nene rises in Northamptonshire and flows through the counties of Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire before reaching its outfall at the Wash. It passes Northampton, Wellingborough, Thrapston, Oundle, Peterborough and Wisbech, flowing through flat Fenland country on its way to the sea. In this striking collection of captioned old photographs, the author unveils life along the Nene in bygone times. Illustrations of bridges, boats, locks, staunches and floods, depict the waterside localities, while lively town and city scenes contrast with peaceful village views. This nostalgic excursion along the River Nene will fascinate residents, river users, visitors to the area and those interested in the country's inland waterways.

Book Description
Britain's rivers deserve to be better known. Teeming with wildlife, steeped in history, sporting bridges, docks and stunning architecture, not to mention supporting riverside pubs, waterways museums and a variety of places of interest, they are the country's essential arteries, connecting inland Britain with the sea. From such world-renowned rivers as the Trent and Severn to little known tributaries like the Wharf, Wissey and Lark, British River Navigations celebrates England's inland rivers which have been improved for navigation, initially for commercial use, but now mostly carrying leisure craft. A fantastic celebration in its own right, alongside the author's previous Canals of Britain and Rivers of Britain this new book completes a trilogy on the different routes that can be used by large and small craft through the inland as well as tidal rivers of Britain. As with his other two books, it takes a wide ranging and detailed look at the built and natural environments surrounding these waterway gems. It explores the history, folklore, wildlife, literature and nearby towns and villages, all illustrated with beautiful maps and colour photographs. So much more than just a guidebook, it contains fascinating detail about our often surprising waterways right across the country. For anyone enjoying England's rivers for recreation or transportation, this captivating guide gives a fascinating insight into the lifeblood of our countryside.
