Who built our canals and our piers? Who built our bandstands and made the underground catacombs beneath our cities? Who built Taj Mahal style palaces next to the sea and called it 'Moorish style'? Where do we come from? How did all this infrastructure get here? Where did the giant dynamos debuted in palaces at world expositions come from>? Who made them?
