Can anyone recommend some good books about the building of famous structures?

I recently enjoyed David McCullough's books on the building of Panama Canal and the Brooklyn Bridge. Does anyone recommend any similar books? Your answers are much appreciated.

As an architect, NYer and lover of the World Trade Center, I highly recommend Men of Steel: The Story of the Family That Built the World Trade Center by Karl Koch and Richard Firstman. Wonderful book for you. I would also recommend Frank Gehry's book = Gehry Talks. Pax- C
