Who Built That?: Bridges: An Introduction to Ten Great Bridges and Their Designers

96 pp. | Princeton Architectural Press | October, 2016 | Trade ISBN 9781616895167 $17.95
(3) 4-6 Translated by Yolanda Stern Broad. This French import introduces readers to ten amazing bridges and their architects and engineers, including the first cast-iron bridge, built over England's Severn River in 1779; the Plougastel Bridge, an all-concrete bridge built in 1930 France; and Calgary's 2012 Peace Bridge, a 428-foot walkway. With a handsome horizontal design echoing the lines of a bridge, the book contains finely detailed, small-scale architectural drawings that invite careful scrutiny.
