Résumé
He invented the railway locomotive. He died penniless. Richard Trevithick, the self-taught Cornish genius, dared to harness the "dangerous" force of high-pressure steam, giving the world its first self-propelled engine and setting the foundation for the Age of Steam. But Trevithick was a reckless visionary, whose mechanical brilliance was undermined by catastrophic business failures. Follow his epic life: from the copper mines to the doomed London spectacles, and his eleven-year exile, chasing fortune across the treacherous Peruvian Andes.
His legacy was stolen by rivals. This comprehensive biography reclaims the essential story of the indispensable pioneer who was forgotten by the world he created. Approx.165 pages, 31000 word count
