From the author of "Huck Finning the Amazon"-the greatest true-life adventure story of the 20th century-now comes "Adventures in Construction: Expect the Unexpected." Art Post's 3rd book takes the reader around the world from the Panamanian jungles to the Scottish highlands where massive feats of engineering and construction are carried out under the management supervision of mar. Post.
These stories are riveting and full of intrigue, politics, and adventure all told with the author's compelling sense of humor. Art's 50 years of engineering, personal hiring management and construction experience are blended beautifully together with his excellent story-telling abilities which leaves the audience wanting more, even if worldwide construction projects were heretofore of little interest to them.
W.W.II Panamanian battle defenses erected among teeming hordes of deadly snakes and malaria infested jungles, engineering feats which seem to defy the limits of physics and the imagination; the seemingly impossible logistics of implementing construction projects from the ground up and much, much more.
