5.0 out of 5 stars
A great combination of scholarship and entertainment!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Great Cooper River Bridge (Hardcover)
An erudite yet entertaining account of early 20th Century Charleston and the construction of its bridge to the North. An unusual mix of engineering, history, and social commentary. Great old photos and drawings of old Charleston. Written with the charm and grace befitting one of America's greatest historic Old South towns.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Reads like a novel--terrific!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Great Cooper River Bridge (Hardcover)
This book is a must for anyone who loves Charleston, SC, and wants to know how this Holy City grew into the gem she is today. The story centers around the city's ancient bridge but really tells the history of Charleston in the early twentieth century. The authors have done an excellent job spinning history with personal vignettes and memories from older Charlestonians. The quirkiness of old Charleston shines through. I read the entire work in one afternoon and at times forgot that I was reading a history--it felt more like a novel.
