During World War II, soldiers were hand-picked and dispersed throughout the world on spy missions that significantly affected the war's outcome. The most vital mission, however, was the one led by fighter pilot Richard Canidy. His job: Locate a secure source of uraninite, a valuable and rare material that is essential for an extremely powerful, top-secret weapon that could single-handedly turn the tide of the war.
For a river with such a famous history, England's Thames measures only 215 miles. Acclaimed novelist and biographer Ackroyd (Hawksmoor; Shakespeare) invites readers on an eclectic, sprawling and delightful cruise of this important waterway. The Thames has been a highway, a frontier and an attack route; it has been a playground and a sewer, a source of water and a source of power, writes Ackroyd. Historians believe the river may have been important for transport and commerce as early as the Neolithic Age.

This book is the first to examine a different kind of political activism that consists in the development of technology from below.
