The River Thames has inspired countless writers and has formed the backdrop of innumerable events in British history, from the heroic to the downright debauched.Inspired by the authors and historic figures who have been influenced by the river, the guide takes the reader on a series of walks in the footsteps of such diverse characters as Oliver Twist, Ratty, and Inspector Morse.Both circular and linear walks lead walkers, cyclists, riverboaters, daytrippers, and the motoristwalker from the Thames Barrier to the rivers source deep in the heart of the Cotswolds. Footpaths are enlivened by insights into the fictional characters and their creators who trod these riverbanks before: from Hampton Court and Cliveden to Eel Pie Island, Lewis Carrolls wonderland, and Toad Hall at Mapledurham House. Physical refreshment for travellers is also catered for in the many riverside English pubs and restaurants detailed. Lighthearted and irresistibly inquisitive, this practical guide will inspire visitors and locals alike.

The Bradt travel guide is informative, but I expected more practical tips. While the historical anecdotes are great, some sections left me wanting clearer directions or maps. Still, it's a decent read if you're interested in the stories behind the Thames.

Great for history buffs!
I picked up 'In the Footsteps of the Famous' from Bradt for my walking tour along the Thames. It’s packed with interesting insights and details about the river's history. The layout is easy to follow, and I loved the beautiful illustrations throughout. Totally made my trip more enjoyable!

Not what I hoped for
I was a bit disappointed with this guidebook. It arrived with a dented cover, and parts of it felt outdated. I wanted more practical insights for my day trips along the Thames. It's more of a history book than a travel guide, which might not be for everyone.
