So boring.

I can imagine technical kids and those who like nonfiction enjoying this. There is a lot of information about the history of steam engines and boats and it is nicely illustrated. The memoir piece is what was lacking for me. It was an interesting story but it wasn’t fully fleshed out and it’s placement within the story wasn’t fluid. Also the last page was a bland some up to the book. I just think this book could have been done better.
