Chris Morris

Isambard Kingdom Brunel is a man whose name has become synonymous with the heroic and inventive engineering of the Victorian age. His personal bravery, persuasive character and refusal to accept the conventional boundaries of his profession led him to a wide range of exceptional achievements.

Chris Morris and his camera track down this legacy, much of which remains, to provide an unrivalled visual celebration of the great man and his work. Alongside the graphic photography is a commentary which reveals Brunel to be as much a visionary as an engineer.

'From the grand gesture to the minute detail: Chris Morris offers an extraordinary visual feast' – Sir Neil Cossons, Chairman, English Heritage
