Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

This book is in "as new" condition. No wear to covers, all models intact, no markings inner pages. Spine intact, no creases. "Build a complete history of bridges, buildings, and major landmarks! Learn the history of famous buildings, bridges, and landmarks, and then build a three-dimensional model of each! There are 25 beautifully illustrated press-out models to build—everything from London's Tower Bridge to the Great Wall of China. Interesting facts and features are included about each structure and its place in history. Fun for the engineer in your life, or any world traveler!" Amazon "Tony Chapman has been a writer since the age of 10, self-publishing a hand-written and personally-bound history of the city of York (his home town), followed by a similarly produced novel about village cricket two years later. Since then he has been an award-winning playwright with a number of plays performed on the London fringe and at Questors Theatre, a novelist with three completed novels to his name and a writer on architecture with 20 published works, including two histories of the RIBA Stirling Prize published by Merrell and a children's book on architecture, Buildings, Bridges and Landmarks - A Complete History with 25 cut-out models. In between he has been, in roughly chronological order, a bookseller, librarian, theatre actor and director; TV researcher, producer and director; architectural bureaucrat running the RIBA Stirling Prize and the Royal Gold Medal and acting as a judge in many architectural awards. The RIBA made him an Honorary Fellow in 2011 for his contributions to architecture in the shape of his books and a series of films about some of the world's great architects. It also led to his recent novel All That Remains which features a machiavellian Prince in one of the lead roles. His latest completed novel In the City a Short Time Ago, begun when undertaking an MA in creative writing at St Mary's University, tells the story of 15 turbulent years around the turn of the millennium seen through the eyes of journalist Emma Matheson whose husband disappears in 9/11 - or does he he? Is he rather swapping one life for another? Tony's agent Matthew Smith of Exprimez is currently seeking a publisher for this and the follow up novel The Long Tunnel, in which Emma's daughter is now a journalist too and a bitter rival, reporting on and experiencing Brexit and the Trump years. Trump himself is a major character in both books." Amazon.
