Third volume in this new series on British natural history. A definitive single-volume study of this topical subject.

Essential reading for serious conservationist and interested layman alike.

Chapters include: Rivers through the ages; The making and shaping of our rivers; Assessing the health of our rivers; River macrophytes; Plants of river banks, floodplains and valley sides; Small creatures without backbones: macroinvertebrates in our rivers; Fish and frogs: cold-blooded vertebrates found in our rivers; Fur and feathers: birds and mammals of our rivers; Comparison of three rivers: Meon, Dee and Endrick.
