Hutton's work is considered a classic in the field of engineering and is still studied and referenced today. The book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of bridge construction or the science of engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
