At the time of its construction, the Forth Bridge was the largest
bridge in the world, and to this day it remains a breathtaking
monument to the vision and confidence of the Victorian age which
created it. For seven years, thousands of men from all over Europe
worked beneath the waters of the Forth and hundreds of feet in the
sky on what was widely regarded as the eighth wonder of the modern
world. Sheila Mackay vividly recounts the story of the bridge from
its inception to the opening ceremony in 1890. Featuring more than
a hundred archive photographs which detail every stage of the
project, this book is a magnificent celebration of one of
humankind’s most impressive engineering achievements.
