Description

Filled with LEGO-based airships and dirigibles, monowheels and penny-farthings, cabinets of curiosity and robots galore, Steampunk LEGO is an illustrated gallery of Victorian-era treasures, all built from LEGO. This full color coffee table book is styled as a diary of the fictional Victorian-era explorer, Captain Herbert Jobson, as he catalogs the wonders of the world for Queen Victoria. Award-winning LEGO builder and special effects master Guy Himber combines brick-built marvels with a swashbuckling narrative, fascinating historical trivia, and authentic Steampunk-styled detailing to bring this fantastical story to life.
