Synopsis
Marc Isambard Brunel (1769-1849) nourished an extraordinary intellect, in spite of a tyrannical father. After serving in Louis XVI's navy as an officer cadet, he left France and, at the age of 30, came to Britain via America. This work explores this remarkable man's life and brings his considerable achievements into focus for the modern historian.
