Sheila Mackay has captured the historical birth of one of the greatest engineering wonders of the world. You can tell from the scenes what the noise and the conditions would have been for the wonderful men who struggled through all weathers to complete this magnificent engineering project. A great work !!

5.0 out of 5 stars forth bridge, 12 Aug 2008

By	G. I. Forbes (edinburgh) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This bookis an outstanding pictorial history of the construction of this bridge from 1883-i900.Itis a cantilever bridge 1.5 mileslong and connects Edinburgh with the north of scotland.Various well written chapters deal with style and site of bridge,the builders,the foundations, the caissons and the superstructure.There is a chapter on casualties- of 4600 men employed 57 were killed and461 admitted to hospital a number of whom must have died.This bookis a must for anyone who has made the rail crossing.
