Introduction
Building bridges across previously impassable expanses of land or water was one of early man’s greatest achievements. Since those ancient days, the skill of bridge-building has become – quite literally – a fine art.
This quick guide shows the reader ten of the world’s greatest bridges. Each one has a reason for being in this list – whether they are works of art, icons of an age, or simply an engineering work of perfection.
There are – of course – many more bridges which could be included in a list such as this, and, if time allows, a ‘volume 2’ may well be written.
