    Description
    A monumental tale of American ambition, told by Pulitzer Prize-winning author and master historian David McCullough. This gripping saga of the creation of the Brooklyn Bridge, one of the country's boldest engineering achievements, reveals not only the politics and personalities behind "America's Eiffel Tower," but charts New York's ascent as a thriving metropolis.

    Around 1870, during the Age of Optimism--a time when Americans believed anything was possible--the ambitious idea of constructing an unprecedented bridge across the East River to connect Manhattan and Brooklyn took root. This monumental project demanded a vision and determination on par with the efforts that built the great cathedrals of history.

    Spearheaded by the Roebling family, the project faced staggering odds throughout its fourteen years of construction. Bodies were crushed, lives were lost, political empires fell, and waves of public emotion constantly threatened its progress. The Roeblings, too, were not immune to personal tragedies. Yet, Emily Roebling rose above these challenges to become the pivotal force behind the Brooklyn Bridge's completion, shattering all societal expectations of her era. This is not just the story of an engineering miracle; it is a sweeping narrative of the social climate of the time and the heroes and rascals who either built or exploited this groundbreaking enterprise.
