"Seven Wonders of the Industrial World uncovers the truth behind the epic monuments of the industrial revolution, from Isambard Kingdom Brunel's extraordinary SS Great Eastern, the 'Crystal Palace of the Seas', to the Panama Canal, that linked the Atlantic and Pacific oceans over half a century later. This is how our modern world was really forged - in rivets, grease and steam; in blood, sweat and human imagination."--Jacket.
