A guide to exploring and enjoying the river Thames and its tributaries through the 50 best riverside walks. The River Thames is a beautifully rich and diverse 215-mile stretch of water that so many of us enjoy walking along – for half an hour, half a day, or days on end courtesy of the wonderful Thames Path. Explore further and you discover the Thames tributaries – the rivers and streams that flow into the Thames from miles in all directions. This natural network has an enormous catchment area, right across Southern England into the Thames Estuary. From a small source stream in Gloucestershire, across varied and historic countryside, through London and into the wide estuary entering the North Sea, the Thames and its tributaries are a plentiful area for exploration and enjoyment. Exploring the Thames Rivers and Streams helps you do just that. The book presents the 33 primary rivers that flow from the Thames and within these chapters describes 50 wonderful walks that best explore the beauty these tributaries have to offer. The walks vary between 4 and 12 miles long and explore a variety of chalk streams, wet woodlands, lakes, reedbeds, flood meadows and canals, where you can pause, observe the wildlife, read about the interesting and historical places featured, or enjoy the waterside with a wild swim, picnic or paddle. Each chapter also features beautiful photography and informative maps.

American landscapes are some of the best-known images in the world: we recognize Niagara Falls, the Grand Canyon, the Manhattan skyline, and the streets of San Francisco in a thousand advertisements and TV shows. But how have these places come to be as they are, and why are some places familiar while others are quite unknown? The American Landscape introduces the reader to the changing face of the American environment, tracing the way in which the present array of forests and farms, parks and superhighways, cities and suburbs have come about, and how these changes have been thought about, painted, turned into movie sets, etc.

'London in the Wild is a timely opportunity to get out and explore all the wild spaces and natural places that exist alongside us. Both on your doorstep and on the other side of the river.' - Chris Packham A place of cars, concrete, lights, noise and pollution, London is a harsh, unyielding landscape created to meet the needs of people, not wildlife, but if you take the time to stop and look, you'll discover it is teeming with more than 15,000 species of flora, fungi and fauna, including marsh frogs, hedgehogs, short-eared owls and dragonflies. With London in the Wild as your guide, you can explore the city from your garden, local parks and community space, but also from its wetlands, woodlands and heaths. Along the way you'll discover the best places to see bluebells in springtime, the day-to-day life of a London Tube mouse and the activities of seals who make their home in the Thames.
