Award-winning author William Rosen tells the story of the men responsible for the Industrial Revolution and the machine that drove it—-the steam engine. The New York Times - John Schwartz …a sneaky history—ostensibly about the origins of the steam engine, though actually about much more…Rosen is a natural and playful story teller, and his digressions both inform the narrative and lend it an eccentric and engaging rhythm.
