Book Reviews of The Great Bridge: The Epic Story of the Building of the Brooklyn Bridge
Book Review: A wonderful narrative history!
Summary: 5 Stars
McCoullough writes a great narrative history. This is the way true historians should write, putting the reader in the time and place of his subject, and not using a bunch of boring facts and dates, and writing in a style only academics can understand. When I finished this book, I felt as if I had just come from the 19th century.
