Description
Young readers will connect with the story of this National Historic Landmark—the Brooklyn Bridge!
Building the Brooklyn Bridge was no simple feat. Despite a brilliant plan from a father-son team of engineers, the process was a dangerous and grueling one. Construction workers developed a mysterious illness (now known as the bends), several died, and the project had devastating effects on the engineers’ lives. Still, after 14 years, the Brooklyn Bridge was finished and became the longest suspension bridge in the world at the time and is still widely admired today. Learn the fascinating story behind one of the city’s best-loved landmarks. Includes black-and-white illustrations and a foldout color map!
