In Dreams of Iron and Steel, acclaimed historian Deborah Cadbury tells the heroic tale of the visionaries and ordinary workers who brought to life seven wonders of engineering that still have the power to awe and inspire us today. From the London sewers that banished cholera to the Panama Canal that shaved thousands of miles off a dangerous sea passage, from the Hoover Dam that diverted the world's most unpredictable river to give power to over half of the country to the transcontinental railroad that fulfilled the dream of manifest destiny. Dreams of iron and steel reveals the epic struggles and personal fortunes and reputations were lost and won.Mode of access: Internet.MissionsTheoryMissions.Online version:Brown, Arthur Judson, 1856-1963.Why and how of foreign missions.New York : Education Department, The Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A., ©1908(OCoLC)64408524700245925820191009170437.020250915000000.020250916060526.02025-09-16T13:15:30Z2025-01-18T18:30:02ZSDR-HVDhvdALMAprepare.pl-004-009BKsdr-hvd.990024352910203941hvdSDRHVD002435291hvd.hn1hjwHVD990024352910203941HVDHVD20250916googlehvd.hn1hjw1908pdbibUS bib date1 < 1931MIUMIU20260317googlemdp.390150194120821908pdbibUS bib date1 < 1931
