These are the stories of that frozen river.*</i> - The book's Introduction.</blockquote><br>This is a delightful series of short vignettes, 2-3 pages or so each. They are snapshots of events, usually based on some historic record, which Helen <u class="showmore_hide">Humphreys has then fictionalized to tell as a short story. It starts with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empress_Matilda" rel="nofollow" target="_top">Empress Matilda</a>'s escape over the frozen river Isis (the name of the Thames in Oxford) in 1142. It carries on with either events involving Royalty or with common people and merchants. Many of these centre around the Frost Fairs of entertainments organized on the frozen river. The final year portrayed is 1895.<br><br>See painting at <a href="https://www.historic-uk.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/thames-river-frost-fair-scaled.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_top">https://www.historic-uk.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/thames-river-frost-fair-s...</a><br><i>Thames Frost Fair (1683-84) painting by Thomas Wyke.

The old London Bridge also acted as a barrier and would slow the waters further, allowing the freeze to happen in the main channel. Although the newer London Bridges allow for faster water passage and make for a narrowed river, there are still sections that freeze over, see the photo below for instance.<br>See photo at <a href="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c7/6b/8a/c76b8a54a91684cb1900443642c6cf8c.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_top">https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c7/6b/8a/c76b8a54a91684cb1900443642c6cf8c.jpg</a><br><i>A section of the frozen Thames in the winter of 1962-63.

So it would be more accurate to say 40 times since 1141 perhaps, or 40 times in the historical records of the last millennium. The Wikipedia article about Thames Frost Fairs mentions a freeze in the year 695 for instance.<br><br>Read more about the Thames Frost Fairs at a Wikipedia article <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Thames_frost_fairs#:~:text=Thames%20Frost%20Fair," rel="nofollow" target="_top">here</a>.</u><span class="showmore_showlink">… (<a href="#" onclick="showMore('u_b5fb7825');">more</a>)</span></div class="" ><span id="rate-u_b0b50227" title="4 Stars" aria-title="4 Stars" class="rating rating-style-306 " data-fn="ratingWidget_fromSettingsA" ><span class="rw"><input type="hidden" value="8" name="form_rating" id="form_rating"/></span><i data-rating_value="2" class="fas fa-star selected" ></i><i data-rating_value="4" class="fas fa-star selected" ></i><i data-rating_value="6" class="fas fa-star selected" ></i><i data-rating_value="7" class="fas fa-star selected" ></i><i data-rating_value="10" class=" fas fa-star empty" ></i></span></div><div id="rfd_270971943" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_270971943"> </span> </span><!-- reviewVoteInfo --><span class="reviewFlags"><div id="reviewflags_given_270971943" class="reviewflags_given hideme">Flagged<span id="rfi1_270971943" class="hideme" > <i title="Flagged as not a review" class="fas fa-flag-alt reviewflags_notreview"></i></span><span id="rfi2_270971943" class="hideme" > <i title="Flagged as abuse" class="fas fa-flag-alt reviewflags_abuse"></i></span></span></div><span id="rfrf_270971943"> </span></span></span> <!-- reviewMods --><span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/alanteder" target="_top">alanteder</a> | <a href="/work/4153714/reviews" data-workid="4153714" data-title="The-Frozen-Thames" class="" >51 other reviews</a> | Sep 4, 2024 | <a href="/review/270971943"><i class="fas fa-link"></i></a></span> <!-- controlItems --></div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_258257755" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/31624312" data-workid="31624312" data-title="Followed-by-the-Lark-A-Novel" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0374611491.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0374611491.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0374611491.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"><div class="postinfo"><a href="/work/31624312" data-workid="31624312" data-title="Followed-by-the-Lark-A-Novel" class="" >Followed by the Lark: A Novel</a> by <a href="/author/humphreyshelen">Helen Humphreys</a></div></div><div class="" >Using his journals as source materials, Helen Humphreys outlines the life of Thoreau as a solitary, pensive man from childhood until his death at age 44.<br>His short life is marked by loss and change which he struggles to deal with.<br>Through the book we are introduced to Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Transcendentalist movement of which Thoreau was member.<br>The prose of the book is quiet and slow moving through time and space.
