Macaulay really knows how to explain it!
Review by Cajundweeb on 07/17/20 review stating Macaulay really knows how to explain it!
This is a good film for those who love civil works, buildings, that sort of stuff. I highly reccommend it for family viewing, and even more so if youre an engineering major in college or university (many good illustrations of engineering concepts abound in the program). Macaulay is also know for his books about great buildings, which I also highly recommend for further reading.
