MENGENAI EPISOD INI
We're learning about another pioneering engineer in today's episode; the 'father of civil engineering' - Thomas Telford.
Born in 1957, the Scotsman rose from humble origins to become the 'Colossus of Roads', so called for his work on over 1000 miles of UK roads. Just as the 'Colossus of Rhodes' was one of the ancient seven wonders of the world, Telford himself was a wonder; unafraid of new materials and techniques, he built aqueducts of stone, and suspension bridges of iron.
And you thought Othmar Amman was the dramatic one? Think again - we learn about Telford's beef with famous engineers John Rennie, and Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
Happy listening, and happy holidays!
