From the Back Cover



'With the call of 'Hey, you guys! Let's get to work, ' women and men shoulder drills and picks, board cranes and cement mixers, and set their equipment bulldozing and steamrolling across vibrant page spreads. Barton generates the excitement of road and building construction for young sidewalk engineers.' --BL.
