BRUNEL: An Engineering Biography

In the year that sees the bicentenary of Brunel's birth, this critical re-examination of his achievements with its somewhat revisionist views will cause much debate and discussion. It portrays the struggle he had to achieve his aims and the extent to which he was forced to rely on others such as his father and the managers of his projects. 2 maps. 84 b/w and 26 colour photos/illustrations.
