This book offers an engaging and informative exploration of the history of London's iconic Tower Bridge, tracing its development from the earliest designs to its engineering triumph, predominantly through the 19th century when London was enjoying great architectural expansion. The author provides a rich historical context, discussing the various proposals and challenges faced during the bridge's construction, as well as the influence and engineering of notable architects and engineers involved, such as Sir Marc Isambard Brunel, Sir Joseph Bazalgette and Sir Horace Jones.
