From Hampton Court to the Thames Barrier, the landscape of London unfolds along the River Thames, from leafy towpaths, bustling thoroughfares, palaces and humble dwellings to industrial buildings, warehouses, power houses, pubs, theatres and churches. In London’s Riverside in Photographs: The Thames from Hampton Court to the Thames Barrier, photographer Franco Pfaller has recorded the huge variety of landscapes, buildings and other structures along the banks of the River Thames in London, including every bridge. Look through these photographs and you will quickly see the unique appeal of this great river artery running through the metropolis.

'It's a book that would appeal to anyone with a love of London and good photography. Very giftable.' -- Londonist, January 2024
'The presentation is simple: pictures are merely captioned with the location, with one or two images per spread. But what this book lacks in words, it more than makes up for in stunning views.' -- Waterways World Magazine, May 2024
