Follow the link, a journey through transportation : from hot lava to a spy rocket... / Tom Jackson, Nick Shepherd.

Jackson, Tom, 1932- (Author). Shepherd, Nick. (Added Author).

Summary:

Follow The Link: A Journey Through Transportation takes the reader on a journey through a network of knowledge down the centuries. It explains how we figured out the way to unlock the materials found in nature and then put them to work to transport us wherever we want to go. Cold rocks were turned into hot metals, invisible forces were picked up by carved stone - and sand and soot were used to make the toughest spacecraft ever.
