Welcome to the Wonders of World Engineering Website

This site is designed to share information about the magazine Wonders of World Engineering.


Published by the Amalgamated Press, it appeared as 53 weekly instalments from 2nd March 1937 through to 1st March 1938. A vast range of subjects was covered.


The complete work was designed to be bound in two hardback volumes which are still readily available. Others chose to retain the weekly parts with their attractive colour covers.  Today the weekly parts are more difficult to obtain but do appear from time to time.


You can review information on each of the 53 parts, and explore the contents of this fascinating magazine using the various links provided.


All the covers and colour plates are viewable, along with the photogravure supplements. Information about the editorials and the advertising used on the covers will also be incorporated.


A number of themed pages are included which add depth to the content, such as Wonders of Water Power; along with more general information, such as biographical notes about the Editor, Clarence Winchester.
