Autobiography of Sir John Rennie, F.R.S., Past President of the Institute of Civil Engineers
Rennie (1794-1874) was the son of engineer John Rennie and brother of George with whom he remained in partnership after their father's death. Specialising in bridge and marine engineering, his major undertaking, from 1824, was the construction of London Bridge from designs prepared by his father and Rennie received a knighthood upon its opening in 1831. This autobiography was written in 1867 after his retirement from a long and distinguished career and was published posthumously in 1875. It comprises the history of his professional life together with reminiscences from the beginning of the 19th Century to the time it was written.
