Riparian Cities: Overseas
OK, I'll admit it: I nicked the title of this page (and the one linked below) from John Smith: How to Win Any
Pub Quiz (Guinness Publishing, 1993, and revised edition 1995). This was the first place I ever registered the word 'riparian'.
I've since come across it in Three Men in a Boat, on re–reading it about 50 years after reading it at school. It
means 'on or pertaining to a riverbank'. I just can't think of a better way to describe what these pages do.
