This hardcover edition spans approximately 160 pages and offers a richly illustrated exploration of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's revolutionary contributions to maritime engineering. The book delves into Brunel's design and construction of the Great Western, the first practical transatlantic paddle-steamer; the Great Britain, the first iron-built screw-driven liner; and the monumental Great Eastern, which remained the largest ship in the world for nearly half a century. Beyond these iconic vessels, the authors also examine Brunel's collaboration with the Admiralty on the introduction of the screw propeller into naval service. Featuring detailed technical illustrations and historical context, this volume provides a comprehensive overview of Brunel's maritime legacy.
