The Great Thames Barrage
The Great Thames Barrage, written by Thomas Walter Barber in the early 20th century, presents a proposal for constructing a barrage across the River Thames to improve port infrastructure and shipping conditions. The work addresses the challenges of navigating the tidal Thames and offers detailed engineering solutions aimed at modernizing this crucial waterway. Barber's insights into river engineering and infrastructure development highlight the importance of adapting to the needs of maritime commerce.
