A comment on Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
First episode is about the SS Great Eastern, an iron ship that was the largest ship built at the time of her launch, designed by Brunel. [2]
I’d highly recommended the series with features episodes on the construction of the Panama Canal, Transcontinental railway and Hoover Dam.
