Magnificent, large-scale graphics include illustrations of Supreme Machines in action, as well as exploded diagrammatic art showing fascinating details of design and construction. Both Supreme Machine books give young readers exciting glimpses into twentieth-century technology and the role technology has played in history.

Illustrations and diagrams are beautifully rendered and technically accurate.
