About this title

Synopsis

This book offers a fascinating look into the construction of 33 major structures, including Du Toitskloof Pass and the Huguenot tunnel, the Victoria Falls bridge, Karina dam, Durban harbour and the Agulhas lighthouse.

It also tells the story of the civil engineers behind these projects, and how through imagination, inspiration, persistence and technical expertise they literally changed the face of the country.
