Summary "Thames Valley Villages, Volume 2" by Charles G. Harper is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume explores various villages along the Thames, detailing their histories, notable landmarks, and unique characteristics that set them apart. The text aims to provide insights into the rural heart of the Thames Valley that has remained relatively unchanged over the years, capturing its charm and historical significance. The opening of the book introduces the town of Reading, providing context for why it is not included among the villages discussed. Harper paints a vivid image of the transition from the bustling industrial town to the serene and picturesque villages nearby, such as Sonning and Hurst. He describes Sonning with particular fondness, emphasizing its natural beauty and historical buildings, including an unpretentious but charming bridge and the notable church. The detailed narrative invites readers to explore the idyllic countryside and its hidden stories, setting the tone for a journey into the Thames Valley's quaint villages filled with history and character.
