Book Reviews of A Picture History of the Brooklyn Bridge

Book Review: Just Amazing!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you're even mildly obsessed by the Brooklyn Bridge than you simply must own this book. You'll also enjoy it immensely if you're interested in books of old photos of NYC or Brooklyn.

While enjoyable on its own, it works even better as a companion to David McCullough's definitive book about "The Great Bridge."
