In the masterworks of American engineering lies a great story of human genius and nature's resistance, of heroic discoveries and costly mistakes, and rapid changes that have touched every aspect of our lives. These masterworks allow us to hold back floods, make deserts bloom, span wide rivers, turn the dark into light. They have transformed our nation and allowed us to prosper as no nation in modern history."--Container
