Originally published in 1931, this book formed part of The
Craftsman Series, which aimed to give secondary school age children
an insight into 'the development of constructive activities in the
sphere of material things'. The text is comprised of extracts from
An Account of the Bell Rock Lighthouse (1824) by Robert Stevenson
(1772-1850), a renowned Scottish civil engineer who specialised in
the design and construction of lighthouses. Extracts were selected
with the intention of providing an absorbing account of Stevenson's
most notable project and joined together to form a continuous
narrative. The text also contains an editorial introduction,
glossary and notes. This is a highly readable book that will be of
value to anyone with an interest in civil engineering, lighthouses
and books for schools.
