In Brunel - an engineering biography, author Adrian Vaughan has delved deep into the records to re-examine Brunel's legacy. Drawing upon many sources, including Brunel's own correspondence, he portrays the struggle that Brunel had in trying to achieve his aims and how far he was forced to rely on others, most notably his father and those who were in day-to-day management of the various projects.
Profusely illustrated with drawings and photographs, this book is a fascinating exploration into the man, his methods and his work.
