Product Description
This work presents 100 stories of weird and wonderful inventions, full-blown and well-developed disasters of what seemed to be brilliant inventions that fell at the first fence, or sometimes the second, like the first steam-powered submarine, still lying on the sea bed off North Wales.

A must for those whose have "brilliant" ideas. Those book is full of ideas that should or could have worked and the just plain daft ideas that people have had. Some are almost believable and some just make you smile and shake your head. Un-put-downable from the first, swimming umbrella (!), due to the inventors belief that these would actually work. Don't miss the chapter on flying!
