Paperback. Zustand: New. One of the leading figures in the age of great engineers, David Stevenson (1815-86) was the son of a lighthouse builder, and while studying at Edinburgh University he was already gaining experience at his father's side. It is for his lighthouses and works of inland navigation that he is best remembered: he designed Britain's most northerly lighthouse and worked on improving navigation on rivers such as the Dee, the Forth and the Clyde. His article on inland navigation for the Encyclopaedia Britannica was published separately in 1858, and was revised and updated for this second edition in 1872. Although Stevenson acknowledges that the age of the canal has been superseded by the age of the railway, he maintains that there is much to learn from the older technology. Illustrated with cross-sections and plans, this work will be of interest to readers seeking to explore the history of Britain's industrial infrastructure.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a highly detailed study of canals both historic and modern, covering their history, engineering, and economic impact from the earliest times to the mid-1800s. The author, a notable civil engineer of the Victorian era, draws on decades of personal experience to provide a comprehensive view of canal engineering, describing designs for still and flowing water and how canals were used to connect rivers in Britain and across Europe, as well as examining their role in the growth of settlements and industries. Given the scale of canal networks at the time of writing, with the advent of railways only briefly touched on, this book provides a fascinating insight into the history of civil engineering and the development of transport networks.
