Summary
Tells the story of how our modern world was forged - in rivets, grease and steam, in blood, sweat and human imagination. Reveals as much about the human spirit as it does about technological endeavor. The slowly evolving Industrial Revolution was the fertile ground that gave life to dreams in iron, cement, stone and steel. The pioneers of the age were practical visionaries, seeing beyond the immediate horizon, the safe and the known, as they cut a path to the future. The seven wonders are: The SS Great Eastern; The Brooklyn Bridge; The Bell Rock Lighthouse; The US Transcontinental Railway; The London sewer system; The Panama Canal; The Hoover Dam
