Moving house is a logistics nightmare...but imagine the challenge of moving an entire house - fixtures, fittings, brick walls, chimney and roof wholesale, through a major city, over a mountain range or across a frozen lake! That's the kind of impossible feat tackled by teams of movers in the dramatic hit engineering TV series, Monster Moves. Meet the movers as they slice and dice mansions with chain saws, hoist church spires with helicopters and winch locomotives down highways with bulldozers. This book explores the engineering behind the moves, the epic races against time and tide, rows over red tape and risky routes, and the horror of what happens when it goes catastrophically wrong.
