Description:
Sudbury: Six Martlets Publishing, 2006.. 1st edition. "Born in York, England, son of a goldsmith, he became one of the greatest civil engineering contractors of his age - an age when Britain built most of the major infrastructure projects in the world. His career was launched with the Stobcross (Queen's) dock in Glasgow at the age of 25 and his name was made when he built the foundations of Tower Bridge in London....His overseas contracts include the Simon's Town dock in Southern Africa, harbour works in Singapore and a barrage accross the Euphrates in Mesopotamia, replacing the one which had been washed away in spring floods. He acheived what most engineers had considered to be impossible; he built the railway over the Andes from Arica in Chile to La Paz in Bolivia." 25cms x 18cms. Pp.viii/232, maps to endpapers, many black & white photos and plans throughout. Illustrated laminated boards. VG+.
