The Paris Universal Exposition of 1889 celebrated France's recovery from the humiliating defeat of the Franco-Prussian War, and Gustave Eiffel's thousand-foot tower represented the glory of that achievement. But the iron tower was a stunning accomplishment in its own right, the tallest structure made by man.The story of the Eiffel Tower is also that of a master builder of the industrializing nineteenth century. Wielding iron in new ways, Eiffel scattered his creations around the globe--train stations and vaulting bridges in Europe, South America, and Indochina, the interior bracing of the Statue of Liberty in the United States. At the peak of his career he easily won the contract to design the audacious monument that came to symbolize not only Paris but a rare moment in history.Over the years the tower has been scorned, exalted, analyzed by philosophers for hidden meaning, and seized upon by eccentrics for bizarre stunts. Exuberant culmination of the nineteenth century's unreserved enthusiasm for machines, the Eiffel Tower remains the world's most famous landmark.

Excerpt from The Way That Led BeyondThe guard was a stout man with a red face, and he had a queer way of puffing out his words, one at a time.
