Unfortunately, it is true.

You think the story of London’s world-changing sewage system is most effectively told through the lens of a guy digging the hole?

The fellow who, despite public opinion being against him, managed to get it done takes a back seat to that? What story are you telling here?

Anyway, you retain the Great Man approach her too.

The alternative is boring, dry history with unfocused stories that no one really remembers or cares about
