K. Brunel  the giant among nineteenth-century engineers  whose works include the construction of the Clifton Suspension Bridge  and three famous ships  Great Western  Great Britain and Great Eastern. He was the engineer in charge of what became the Great Western Railway. Tunnels played a vital role in his life and work  beginning at the age of eighteen with the Thames tunnel and progressing to those needed by the railway companies. At the time of publication  there was a general revival of interest of Brunel. A group of engineers  each distinguished for work in their field  joined together to pay tribute to him by describing his major works and critically examining them. For this purpose they have sought out relevant contemporary documents and drawings  and benefited from a study of the Brunel papers held by the University of Bristol.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986220609589,"sku":"ByrdShop_0521232392","price":227.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780521232395.jpg?v=1770892910","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-works-of-isambard-kingdom-brunel","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
