Excerpt from A Complete History of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge: From Its Conception in 1866 to Its Completion in 1883The tide of travel begins to flow back and forth over the great structure which now unites the largest and the third largest cities of the Union, the Atlantic pulsating between. N 0 longer can the impatient passenger over the East River, detained by fog or ice, look up at the slowly-growing causeway overhead, and wonder to himself and his neighbor whether he shall live to cross it, and incredulously shake his head. The old Brooklyn resident sees the task accomplished; and the long years of waiting dwindle to a moment smaller than that in which the Arabian Nights hero ducked his head in the tub of water, and experienced the vicissitudes of half a lifetime before he drew it out again, and all within the com pass of a breath. How recent seems the agitation whether such a thing were possible; the various plans, bordering all the way from Sober sanity to stark inanity; how of yesterday the persistent face and figure that buttonholed the traveller at Fulton and Main Streets.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"Bringing together more than sixty images of the bridge that, over the years, have graced postcards, magazine covers, and book jackets and appeared in advertisements, cartoons, films, and photographs, Haw traces the diverse and sometimes jarring ways in which this majestic structure has been received, adopted, and interpreted as an American idea. Haw's account is not a history of how the bridge was made, but rather of what people have made of the Brooklyn Bridge - in film, music, literature, art, and politics - from its opening ceremonies to the blackout of 2003."--BOOK JACKET.

The Brooklyn Bridge is a pre-eminent global icon. It is the world’s most famous and beloved bridge, a "must-see" tourist hotspot, and a vital fact of New York life. For almost a hundred and forty years it has inspired artists of all descriptions, fueling a constant stream of paintings, photographs, lithographs, etchings, advertising copy, movies, and book, magazine, and LP covers. In consequence, the bridge may have the richest visual history of any man-made object, so much so, in fact, that almost no major American artist has failed to pay homage to the span in some form or other. Oddly, however, there are no books currently available that chart and discuss the bridge’s visual history or its role in the development of American (or Western) art. This monograph aims to correct that, providing a full visual record of the bridge from the origins of its conception to the present day. It is a celebration of the bridge’s glorious visual heritage timed to appear when the city will celebrate the span’s 125th birthday.
