Abstract

This book traces the engineering developments which have taken place in Sydney, although some of the ideas of Sydney engineers have spread through the world. It is a fascinating story, interestingly told, of the endeavours and tribulations of many of the great engineers who have worked in the cradle of the nation, over the two centuries since our beginnings.
