Maillart was, in Billington's view, an artist-engineer; the expression of engineering design at its best. . . . This is a beautiful book. It is lavishly illustrated, and written with remarkable clarity, insight, and wisdom.Billington, David P. is the author of 'Robert Maillart's Bridges The Art of Engineering' with ISBN 9780691024219 and ISBN 0691024219.
