The longest ship ever built, the heaviest digger and the largest
aeroplane, the world's first working motorcar, and its most
expensive one. What machines like these have in common is that they
all say a lot about the inventiveness and imagination of the people
who conceived and created them. Some of them are useful, others are
just a bit of fun, but the best ones are truly magnificent, and
fascinating to discover. Designed to drive faster, fly higher,
carry more cargo or - in the case of space rockets - travel
hundreds of thousands of miles to places no-one has ever been
before, not every idea has worked but the best have been inspired
and inspirational, and in a few cases they have gone on to change
the world. It is the human stories and atmospheric art that make
this a book to actually read and delight in.
