Wild About The Thames is the beautiful new book by Putney photographer Andrew Wilson
|
The Thames and the Environment Agency have just scooped a major environmental award, the International Theiss River Prize for river management and conservation, which is the world’s largest environmental prize, so there is no better time to get out and enjoy the Thames. From Hampton Court Palace on its way to the sea, the Thames flows past some of the most glorious open spaces to be found anywhere in London.
Join Putney photographer Andrew Wilson as he explores the wilder side of the river and the park life that borders it amongst some of our finest stately homes and public spaces.
With illustrations by the author's brother Jeremy Wilson and over 450 colour photographs from Battersea Park, South Park, Wandsworth Park, Bishops Park, Putney Lower Common, the WWT London Wetland Centre, Brook Green, Hammersmith, Ravenscourt Park, Leg O’Mutton Nature Reserve, Chiswick House, Barnes, Strand-on-the-Green, Richmond Park and much more... it will make a lovely book to grace any coffee table, a great Christmas gift for friends and neighbours living in London or beyond.
