À propos de ce produit

Product Information

FROM THE #1NEW YORK TIMESBESTSELLING AUTHOR OF JOHN ADAMSFirst published in 1972,The Great Bridgeis the classic account of one of the greatest engineering feats of all time -- the building of the Brooklyn Bridge.This monumental audiobook which presents extended unabridged passages from the book brings back a heroic vision of the America we once had. It is the enthralling story of one of the greatest events during the Age of Optimism -- a period when Americans were convinced that all great things were possible.In the years around 1870, the concept of building a great bridge to span the East River between the cities of Manhattan and Brooklyn required a vision and determination comparable to that which went into the building of the pyramids. Throughout the fourteen years of the bridge's construction, the odds against its successful completion seemed staggering. Bodies were crushed and broken, lives were lost, political empires fell, and surges of public emotion constantly threatened the project. But this is not merely the saga of an engineering miracle: it is a sweeping narrative of the heroes and rascals who had a hand in either constructing or obstructing this great enterprise.

Reviews
"The impact of the soaring structure upon the American imagination and American life has now been measured with sagacity and style by David McCullough. . . . The Great Bridge is a book so compelling and complete as to be a literary monument, one of the best books I have read in years. McCullough has written that sort of work which brings us to the human center of the past." -Robert Kirsch, Los Angeles Times, "After reading David McCullough's account, you will never look at the old bridge in quite the same way again." -Christopher Lehman-Haupt, The New York Times, Los Angeles TimesThe Great Bridgeis a book so compelling and complete as to be a literarymonument...McCullough has written that sort of work which bringsus to the human center of the past., " The Great Bridge is a book so compelling and complete as to be a literary monument. . . .

What David McCullough has written is a stupendous narrative about the building of the Brooklyn Bridge, with a cast of thousands (give or take 100), whose major characters come alive on the page as authentically, as creatively, as would their fictional counterparts if one had the imagination to dream up such a yarn. Once again, truth is not only stranger than fiction but a hell of a lot more entertaining. Get your hands on The Great Bridge . . . . This is the definitive book on the event. Do not wait for a better try: there won't be any." -Norman Rosten, Newsday, "David McCullough has taken a dramatic and colorful episode out of the American past and described it in such a way that he sheds fresh light on a whole era in American history." -Bruce Catton, "After reading David McCullough's account, you will never look at the old bridge in quite the same way again." -Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New York Times, " The Great Bridge is a book so compelling and complete as to be a literary monument. . . .
