And at what cost? Learn the motives and methods used for this engineering wonder. Building something always takes hard work. But what makes a bridge, a canal, a wall, or a pyramid extraordinary? Discover how engineers created historical and modern architectural wonders. Book jacket.

Reviews
In a welcome change from the normal series approach, these titles place each featured structure into the context of its natural and cultural environments while discussing how it reflects the society that built it. Authors explain engineering concepts, challenges, and construction processes so clearly that readers will understand how engineers overcame seemingly impossible problems to design and build these magnificent structures. . . .Good choice to introduce landmark structures and the engineering that made them possible.
