        The returned object is an instance of :class:`.Join`.

          derived from foreign key relationships established between
          left and right otherwise.

        To chain joins together, use the :meth:`.FromClause.join` or
        :meth:`.FromClause.outerjoin` methods on the resulting
        :class:`.Join` object.
