David Macaulay takes us on a visual journey through a city’s various support systems by exposing a typical section of the underground network and explaining how it works.
We see a network of walls, columns, cables, pipes and tunnels required to satisfy the basic needs of a city’s inhabitants.
“A straightforward yet fascinating description of the labyrinth beneath the feet of any city dweller. And what a complex covered world David Macaulay reveals! He invents an intersection of two streets and proceeds to show what we all might find if we dared to descend through that Alice-in-Wonderland manhole.” — The New York Times
