The Great Bridge (Mar, 2010)

Product Code COB1003

When the Brooklyn Bridge was completed in 1883, it became the first land-to-land connection between present-day Manhattan and Brooklyn. It also was the longest suspension bridge in the world. The bridge's construction - it took 13 years - and the price the Roebling family paid to see the project to its completion make quite a story. In the March issue, you'll meet John, Washington, and Emily Roebling. You'll marvel at the engineering that went into this structure and test the concepts behind a suspension bridge by building a simple bridge using pasta boxes and paper. Really! And you can learn how this historic landmark is maintained today.
