The book includes drawings, woodcut illustrations, photographs, bird sightings, poetry, and thoughts along Peter's journey. Drawings were made at two mile intervals, and photographs were taken with digital camera but also on black and white film with a vintage Kodak Brownie camera. The route passes elements of the Chiltern Way, the Thames, the Kennet, and the Kennet \u0026amp; Avon canal, as well as Pinkneys Green, Wargrave, Charvil, Sonning, Reading, Ufton Nervet, Aldermaston Wharf, Woolhampton, Greenham Common, Burghclere, and more points in between.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: 'Ubuntu',sans-serif; color: #626262; letter-spacing: .25pt;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm; background: white; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: 'Ubuntu',sans-serif; color: black; letter-spacing: .25pt;\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: 'Ubuntu',sans-serif; color: #626262; letter-spacing: .25pt;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm; background: white; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: 'Book Antiqua',serif; color: black;\"\u003e“Beautiful, poignant and thoughtful.
