George Sullivan's Built To Last: Building America's Amazing Bridges, Dams, Tunnels And Skyscrapers is a pick for grades 5-6, telling the story of the design and construction of seventeen selected architectural and engineering marvels. Lovely photos include six vertical, double-page spreads with images of the Sears Tower, Golden Gate Bridge, and more, while descriptions provide details on construction challenges and achievements. Built To Last may not fit into curriculums for assignments, but it surely will attract leisure readers.
