Title: An incredible tale, poorly written.
Product review: The fact that the Chunnel is in operation today has to be one of man's greatest achievements. The story of the construction of the tunnel itself is amazing, but the entire history and the efforts of the companies, governments, and individuals is even more incredible. However, the book itself is did not do this story justice. I found it very difficult to follow both chronologically and factually. The book jumped around in time which made it hard to distinguish how things took place. There were so many characters not germaine to the project that it was hard to keep the names of the people involved straight. I found that without diagrams or illustrations, the explanations of the construction and engineering was difficult to comprehend, and I am an engineer. I understand there may be a video, I suggest renting it instead!
