Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This is a biography that introduces a fascinating historical figure and will make readers yearn for more information. The facts are covered, including Fulton's proposed canal between the rivers Heyl and Helford; Parsons states clearly the negotiations with France, and the probable order of events, incidents and the motive for inventing submarine navigation and attack. Especially appealing are the depictions of the steamships. Robert Fulton (1765-1815) was an American engineer and inventor who developed the first useful submarine and torpedo (1800) and produced the first practical steamboat, the Clermont (1807).
