Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Autobiography of Sir John Rennie, F. R. S : Past President of the Institution of Civil Engineers; Comprising the History of His Professional Life, Together With Reminiscences Dating From the Commencement of the Century to the Present Time The following Autobiography was written by Sir John Rennie in 1867, shortly after he had retired from the active duties of his profession. As will be perceived in the sequel, it was composed wholly from memory. Sir John was subsequently unable to revise it as he would have desired, and it has since been found impossible to do so. Nevertheless it is believed that but few substantial errors will be found; while the kindliness with which the autobiographer invariably speaks of every person with whom he came in contact, is a guarantee that there can be nothing to offend the most sensitive person, or which might tend to injure the just claims and reputations of others.
