From the Publisher:
In stunning two-page spreads filled with photographs, plans, drawings, and accessible, informative text, this colorful architectural and historical journey explains why bridges continue to fascinate us, both as examples of engineering genius and artistic vision. It reveals little-known facts that deepen our appreciation of the science and technology of bridge-building, introduces historic events in which bridges have played a central role, and offers surprising reexaminations of some of the world’s most familiar bridges. From the glory of the Golden Gate to the grace of the Ponte Vecchio, the imposing presence of London’s Tower Bridge to a stone structure in Afghanistan’s Quala Panji that is still used today, Bridges That Changed the World is a celebration of our steadfast desire to connect with and discover the world around us.
About the Author:
Bernhard Graf, a scholar and art historian who has written numerous books, is the co-author of Buildings that Changed the World and Paintings that Changed the World (both Prestel).
