The History of the Britannia Tubular Bridge: A Paper (1900) is a book written by Clement Edwin Stretton. The book provides a detailed account of the construction and history of the Britannia Tubular Bridge, a railway bridge that spans the Menai Strait in North Wales. The bridge was designed by Robert Stephenson and completed in 1850, and was considered a major engineering feat of its time. Stretton’s book includes a description of the bridge’s design and construction, as well as its use and maintenance over the years. He also provides information on the various challenges that were faced during the construction of the bridge, including the difficult conditions of the Menai Strait and the need to build a structure that could withstand the strong currents and winds of the area. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both engineers and lay readers interested in the history of engineering and infrastructure. It includes illustrations and photographs that help to bring the story of the Britannia Tubular Bridge to life. Overall, The History of the Britannia Tubular Bridge: A Paper (1900) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of engineering and the development of infrastructure in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
