Tom Rolt is able to draw one in to the world of Victorian engineering. People such as Telford, Stephenson, Brunel and others are written about in such a way as to make the reader understand that these men were giants. Today, no one comes near them in the quantity and variety of their achievements. The entire industrial age was built on their shoulders. It is harder to write about Telford as he did so much over such a long time yet one can appreciate his life. I recommend ANY book by Tom Rolt as a learning journey that enriches a person for the rest of their life. This book is just another step in that journey. Well done LTC Rolt!
