Synopsis
Thomas Telford, the son of a shepherd, was born in Westerkirk, Scotland in 1757. At the age of 14, he was apprenticed to a stonemason. He worked for a time in Edinburgh and in 1792, he moved to London. During his life, Telford built more than 1,000 miles of road, including the main road between London and Holyhead. This title talks about Telford.

“Telford by L.T.C Rolt”

This has to be the best account of Telford's work and achievements that I have read. So detailed and researched. Another L.T.C Rolt biography I would recommend is his book on Brunel.
