Waller, David (Author)
In the early nineteenth century, Henry Maudslay, an engineer from a humble background, opened a factory in Westminster Bridge Road, Lambeth. Attracting the best in engineering talent, this factory became the pre-Victorian equivalent of Google and Apple combined. Iron Men is a nuts-and-bolts history of Maudslay's engineering enterprise, a feat that made the Industrial Revolution possible and helped Great Britain become the workshop of the world. (Worldcat)
