Summary "The Rivers and Streams of England" by A. G. Bradley is a descriptive account focusing on the natural beauty and significance of England's rivers, written in the late 19th century. This work provides both literary appreciation and geographical insight into well-known rivers like the Severn and Wye. As a result, readers can expect a blend of poetic reflection and detailed observation that highlights not just the rivers themselves but also their impact on the surrounding landscapes and communities. The opening of the book introduces the Severn, emphasizing its character as a mountain-born river and the unique landscape of its origins. Bradley reflects on the contrasting charm of rivers that rise in isolated highland areas compared to those born in lowland pastures. The narrative captures the scenic beauty of the Severn as it meanders through Wales and into Shropshire, touching on historical elements, local wildlife, and the allure of the natural environment that defines its journey. This poetic yet informative depiction sets the tone for a work that marries geography with literary elegance, inviting readers to explore the essence of English waterways.
