Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A Life in Steel - A Life Between Fire, Knowledge, and RecognitionIn an age when steel was reshaping the world, one man worked in the shadow of greater names.A Life in Steel tells the gripping, true story of Robert Forester Mushet: the engineer who did not so much discover as correct, refine, and strengthen - and in doing so helped shape the Industrial Revolution, without ever receiving the applause.Between glowing furnaces and London patent offices unfolds a biographical novel of ambition, resistance, and quiet brilliance. Mushet moves along the fault line between science and power, where progress is fought for with as much conviction as solitude. This is not a technical manual, but a literary journey through the nineteenth century, in which steel is not merely a material, but a metaphor for humanity itself: bent under pressure, yet neither broken nor bowed.For readers drawn to historical fiction, industrial history, science, innovation, and forgotten geniuses, A Life in Steel is a revelation.A book about how real progress is rarely loud - but always relentless.Discover the story behind the steel.And behind the men who shaped it. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Een leven in staal - een leven tussen vuur, kennis en erkenningIn een tijd waarin staal de wereld hersmeedde, werkte een man in de schaduw van de grote namen.Een leven in staal vertelt het meeslepende, waargebeurde verhaal van Robert Forester Mushet: de ingenieur die niet zozeer ontdekte, maar corrigeerde, verfijnde en versterkte - en daarmee de industriele revolutie mee vormgaf, zonder er ooit het applaus voor te krijgen.Tussen gloeiende ovens en Londense patentkantoren ontvouwt zich een biografische roman over ambitie, verzet en stille genialiteit. Mushet beweegt zich op het snijvlak van wetenschap en macht, waar vooruitgang wordt bevochten met evenveel overtuiging als eenzaamheid. Dit is geen technisch handboek, maar een literaire reis door de negentiende eeuw, waarin staal niet enkel materiaal is, maar metafoor voor de mens zelf: gebogen onder druk, maar brekend noch buigend.Voor lezers die houden van historische romans, industriele geschiedenis, wetenschap, innovatie en vergeten genieen is Een leven in staal een ontdekking.Een boek over hoe echte vooruitgang zelden luid is - maar altijd hardnekkig.Ontdek het verhaal achter het staal. En achter de mannen die het vormgaven. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
