Non-Fiction History
The Gate is an absorbing panoramic account of the building
of one of the world's most beautiful and famous landmarks.
In a narrative richly laden with detail and the flavor of
the period, John van der Zee reveals for the first time the
complete history of the longest single-span suspension
bridge of its time—including the identity of the man who
actually designed it, which has been obscured since its
completion in 1937. With novelistic flair, van der Zee recounts an exciting
drama of human greed, ambition, frailty, courage, and
intellectual achievement.
