Social history, beautifully researched and with just the right amount of information provided. I found 'Rogues River" on the local history shelf at Rainham library while searching for "Tales of London's docklands"
Having read the library copy a number of times, I found it so fascinating as to seek and acquire my own copy (via biblio.co.uk.) for the princely sum of £5 delivered to the door.
Rogues River covers all aspects of hundreds of years of liquid history condensed into a book small enough to slip into a wide pocket and is written in a form that allows dipping in at any page.
