Description
No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or rubbed or creased with general signs of storage. 206pp. The story of two giants of Victorian engineering who were bitter commercial rivals but maintained an astonishing lifelong friendship. Both built the railways of Great Britain, Stephenson in fact being the creator of the Rocket, and Brunel was engineer to the Great Western Railway, built the Thames Tunnel and a series of spectacular ships.
