This is a paperbound reprint of a 2001 work. Completed in 1874, the structure now known as the Eads Bridge crossed the Mississippi River at St. Louis. In this monograph, urban planner and historian Jackson tells the story of this monumental engineering project, which resulted in the longest steel arch bridge in the world at that time. B&w architectural drawings and archival photographs illustrate the bridge's construction at various stages. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
